I would love to get some feedback from my audition. Thank you :)

There is mouth noise right before you start to speak. I like the timbre of your voice. It is soothing. Right before 'and a strange thing happened", there is a swallow. More mouth noise right before "and she came close [...]" and after "in the center". There was a little click at the very end. Fortunately for you, those are all easy to edit out and your breaths are sufficiently soft that you can leave them in. Your pace is just right. In this line: "And out of it there stepped a fairy" you pause before 'there' instead of 'it'. I have not mentioned it before now, but I believe everyone else has, too. Pause after clause, people !! Anyway, we would be lucky to have you as a narrator. If you are interested in volunteering your voice for a good cause, e-mail me at [email protected] and I will find you I think you will enjoy.

The objective is not to sound like you are reading; you're supposed to be retelling a story. I expect you to edit your work.


The sides they read from:

  • Of what use was it to be loved and lose one's beauty and become Real if it all ended like this? And a tear, a real tear, trickled down his little shabby velvet nose and fell to the ground.


    And then a strange thing happened. For where the tear had fallen a flower grew out of the ground, a mysterious flower, not at all like any that grew in the garden. It had slender green leaves the colour of emeralds, and in the centre of the leaves a blossom like a golden cup. It was so beautiful that the little Rabbit forgot to cry, and just lay there watching it. And presently the blossom opened, and out of it there stepped a fairy.


  • She was quite the loveliest fairy in the whole world. Her dress was of pearl and dew-drops, and there were flowers round her neck and in her hair, and her face was like the most perfect flower of all. And she came close to the little Rabbit and gathered him up in her arms and kissed him on his velveteen nose that was all damp from crying.


    "Little Rabbit," she said, "don't you know who I am?


    "The Rabbit looked up at her, and it seemed to him that he had seen her face before, but he couldn't think where.

  • "I am the nursery magic Fairy," she said. "I take care of all the playthings that the children have loved. When they are old and worn out and the children don't need them any more, then I come and take them away with me and turn them into Real."


    "Wasn't I Real before?" asked the little Rabbit.


    "You were Real to the Boy," the Fairy said, "because he loved you. Now you shall be Real to every one."
