Auditioning for a part in the middle school play always induces pandemonium among one group of girls. This year, as their more mature seventh-grade selves, will they all feel confidence in their abilities -- or will they still be worrying about who has the most lines and getting cast as a dreaded gnome? From musical auditions to cast list heartbreak, they've been through the mill, and they're ready to talk about it.
