"4) THank your lucky stars that you didn't really care out the outcome of this particular audition. Indeed, your "failure" may have been a subconscious attempt to avoid having to accept a job you really didn't want."
Excellent point, Karen! I know I've done this. I was at an audition last year for the "King and I". The director was mean and nasty to everyone from the get go and I wasn't thrilled about the prospects of working with him. When he had me sing "We Kiss in the Shadows", I was awful. I walked out of the audition and into the street and sang it beautifully. True, there was no pressue to sing to myself in the street, but when I thought about it later, I really think my subconscious stepped in and sabotaged me and ruined my chances of getting into a show I would have been miserable in.
