Well, I call shenanigans.  I want a good part, but I also want to do a cold reading.  It's not an audition, and it's not a performance.  Others are entitled to their varying mileage, but I just want to come to a party for dramatic reading without having to have prepared.  Bad enough I have to figure out what to wear. 
 
 
 
 
But does that leave me with all the crap, leftover parts that go into a hat?  Waaaa, not fair, I whine.
