I think that's what he's thinking, too.
He feels the lead will look better on his resume.
The question is whether the people here will make their decision in time for him. He has worked in children's theatre (non Equity) at this theatre before in a show that was actually written for him, so they are somewhat familiar with him.
By the way, the local show is Thouroughly Modern Millie.
He can't string the cruise line along forever, though -- it's not fair to them and he certainly doesn't want to burn any bridges.
If they want to cast him in the chorous in Millie, he'll go with the "boat people" as I call them.
In the mean time, he's still auditioning.

He called just as I was posting. Another call back for Millie this morning with the group down to about six.
He doesn't think they're considering him for the main lead (Jimmy, I think), but perhaps still a secondary lead. He did the show in the Chorus in summer stock last year. They don't think they'll have a decision until early next week. He's not sure when he will need to give a go/no go to the cruise line.
The tension mounts.
By the way, the ship they want him for has some great Carribean trips, a couple of Florida to San Diego trips through the Canal and some Vancouver to Alaska cruises, so that would be a lot of fun, too.
