"Acting!" That was the cry you heard at your first theatre class as you entered the room. The teacher, probably also the English teacher and Music teacher, was telling everyone to know what they were all here for. This introduction to acting may have been the beginning or the end of your foray in to the realm of the performing arts. Maybe they yelled a little too loudly, seemed a little off as they bellowed into the rafters, so you quietly exited, crossing acting off of your list of potential elective classes.When attending acting auditions there will always be rules of etiquette that an actor must follow during the audition process. The three main phases of an audition are the arrival, the audition itself, and your exit.

Always arrive at an audition fifteen minutes earlier. Acting auditions are a hectic process, and things are always changing, so it is always better to be early than late. Do not dress in any costume unless asked to, but dress in attire that best suits the role you are auditioning for. When you first arrive, report directly to the casting assistant. Once you have signed in with the casting assistant, wait patiently for your turn. Be quiet and respectful to the casting assistants; any rudeness will surely be mentioned to the casting director. If you have received your "sides" (pages which will be read in audition) rehearse to yourself and wait for your name to be called. Do some exercises that will help you relax, like deep breathing, or closing your eyes and visualizing your scene. The main goal in the waiting area is to stay lose.

Acting for many people is the only thing that keeps them from actually going completely insane. By playing another person completely, they are able to flush out powerful demons and mental afflictions through the acting process. Yes, in the end, Acting is in fact, great therapy, and we should all be thankful for it.
