Auditions came and went
You finally got a part.
Now make the most of it.
Small role, but it's a start.

Though others think it's work,
Rehearsals are great fun.
You see them as free lessons,
Since learning's never done.

Experience with living,
The time you spent in choir,
The dancing classes taken,
They grew your repertoire.

The artists that you meet, 
Competing for choice parts,
This family you joined,
The stage has won their hearts.

Enter through the stage door
And know that you've arrived.
Your journey is complete.
Took time, but you've survived.
