Tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow...

I'm in the midst of chasing down a dream. 

And to be honest, i think i have a real shot at it. 

But we'll see. 

Scary stuff though, chasing your dreams. 

Heres the scoop:

The Tony Awards are The Oscars of the theatre world. All the major broadway stars attend. 

I've watched them every year since i was a freshman in high school. 

Macys is hosting a competition called "Ticket to the Tonys". There are 5 winners, including 2 grand prize winners. The 5 finalists get a 3 day trip to New York to compete for the grand prize AND they get to attend the dress rehearsal of The Tony awards (i would be thrilled just to win this). The grand prize winners get a $1000 Macys gift card, an extra night in New York, and they get to WALK THE RED CARPET, attend the show and the after show gala with all the stars. SWOOOON.  

 

Heres my entry:

I just have to get into the top five...and that is completely out of my hands. 

If i make it in the top 5 a panel of judges (60% of vote) and voting (40% of vote) decides the top 2 based on: creativity and originality (25%), strength of voice and pitch (25%), and body language/performance/stage presence (50%)

Thats where i feel i have a shot, because The Tony Awards tweeted my video out to their 9,000 followers - but who really knows what that means?! None of those followers have any reason to want to make my dream come true, and getting in to the top 5 is entirely dependent on public voting, which starts tomorrow (the 27th) at noon and goes till midnight June 1st....thats only 4 days!! Gaaah. 

So we'll have to wait and see and pray and hope and and and....

Ohh i wish i wish.
