I've tried talking to the director about it but the choreographer invested in the production so there isn't much they're going to do. If I didn't really want this part, it's been on my list of ones I've wanted for years and wouldn't have gone after if it weren't for my best friend encouraging me, I'd walk away from it since we're still early enough they can recast easily.
Are you sure you wouldn't mind helping me? I have absolutely no experience with it before this part so I'm essentially a blank slate here. And I'll pay you for your time of course because it could be a lot of it to get me ready. I want to do the routine right.
