That sounds like a bad situation. If you have been in the play for a few weeks and it doesn't seem like their act is going to come together, then I'd say quitting is okay. Just say that you are having problems coming to the rehearsals on such short notice. They need to be respectful of your time, especially if you are volunteering your time without pay.

That's what's so funny about the whole thing. She's paying them.

I did end up quiting. I just couldn't get the bad taste out of my mouth from everything that had gone down. I ended up emailing the only email addy we were given ( a lady in charge of our conflicts) and wrote out a very professional letter. I stated my reasons on quiting and that this was a show I had been dying to be in and was sad to be leaving. I was very clear in my reasons for doing so.

I actually got an email back from the Producer which I was quite shocked for receiving. She apologized profusly (sp?) and asked me to reconsider resigning and that if I didn't end up coming back she wished me all the best.

Probably the best "breakup" I have ever experienced. And although I really am sad to not get to perform one last time in Utah, and not in such a groovy show as this one, I don't regret my decision at all.

Thanks everyone for your help and in put on the matter. I really do appreciate it.

Yelled and screamed for help
A girl who turned her back on the world
and a girl who did nothing but love someone.
