Zac Efron’s Worst Audition Ever

Every actor and actress has to start somewhere right? They all have bad experiences, they all have a bad audition, they all have one movie role that wasn’t their best. In order to get started in acting, you have to start somewhere.

High School Musical star Zac Efron recently talked about his worst audition ever. It was for the role of Peter Pan in a live action show. He was only 15 years old and said that the audition consisted of him “running around and jumping off my chair, singing the lines.”

As he was running around and jumping off things, Zac said,  “This woman interrupted me and goes ‘you’ve never done this before have you?’ and I went ‘no’ and she went ‘okay you can go’ and that was the worst audition ever, ever in my life.”

Now he’s a successful star who seems to be able to pick and choose his roles better. He is co-starring with Claire Danes in Me and Orson Welles.

What’s the point of this? It’s that Zac Efron had a really bad audition but he didn’t give up. He knew this is what he wanted to do with his life, so he pushed on. Don’t give up! Get out there and start auditioning for roles. You never know where you could end up!
