I didn’t get a role. Not a one, not even as part of the ensemble. They don’t want Bobby. I am utterly shattered.

Thank you Dazed, I think so too. I would have loved to have played Toad of Toad Hall riding around in his motorcar and shouting ‘WAAAAYYYYY!’. It was always my dream role.
We did quite a few plays in the Youth Theatre but I dropped out of a lot of them due to my parts being too small. I felt I was worth much more and still do. The Silver Sword, The Royal Hunt for the Sun, The Railway Children, Simon and the Witch…
We did Tom Sawyer too funnily enough. I played the role of Mr Rogers. Who? Exactly…he’s not even in the book.

Not to worry Bobby!
Crack open the YouTube and start your own channel. I'm sure that people will flock to it and those Am Dram folks will be livid at what they lost out on
Do your own one-man show of Young Frankenstein and show them what's what!

No Juan I do not wish to do that. You see part and parcel of me joining this group would have been meeting new friends who have the same enjoyments as me. Also a validation that I am as talented as I believe. A one person thing just amplifies the loneliness and no one has accepted me, I’d just be doing it off my own bat.
I’m starting to get quite angry now Juan the more I think about it. I think that I might go down there later where they rehearse and throw eggs at the building and maybe some loo paper and pee on the walls.

What like weirdos from the internet?! Noooo I wanted to be in a group with nice people, normal people.
I’ve just been watching a video of that amdram group where they had a private little song performance for family members. They all seemed so smug, so sure of themselves…oh dear Juan I hope that this doesn’t turn me into a bitter and angry person.

I am done wasting my thoughts on these snooty elitist horrors in that group now Juan, let’s get back to our story now. I hope you don’t mind but I’ve retconned a lot of it because I had a story in mind which needed a fresh slate. I hope that this doesn’t upset you and I won’t retcon again.

No no Juan it is OK, I can wait. I felt like that myself for a few days with the mental torture and anguish of rejection ringing through my brain. There’s no rush.
