@CooperationIsKey: Basically what I had happened. So my junior year at the end, the drama club, run by the drama teacher, who having us apply to board positions for the club, and there were 7 positions, and only 7 people who applied. So you'd think everyone would get a spot right? Wrong, because I was one of the people and my best friend at the time was another. They decided to combine some of the positions, so they only needed 5 instead of seven. It was upsetting, and that year I got some pity award at our theater awards show. I later found out from that bestie of mine, she was told they combined the positrons because they didn't want me, and they didn't give her one to not upset her. I would have thought she was lying but other students told me that too. Really fed up way to treat a 16 year old.
That killed theater for me at least acting wise.
@Ava: You'd be so right about that favoritism. Better to avoid it and just go watch the shows.
