Well...number one...if u dont need any expirience it sounds like its a scam anyways. I have a lot of expirience in acting and im only 13 so you might not believe me but u should. At my first audition i was really nervouse but i overcame it by trying to get it out of my mind. I said im at an audition but that doesnt mean my life depends on it. Its just one audition that doesnt really matter if u dont get in. I also was afraid to speak. Sometimes when i talk to people when im nervouse my voice cracks a little. I just had to get over the fact that i was nervouse and just strive for it. Forget about it and just do the best u can! GOOD LUCK!

I have always wanted to find out but never had

I was REALLY scared for my first audition too. DOn't worry when you show up just play it cool, and try to focus on acting.

just forget about what people think bout you... get up there and do it!

I've been involved in theatre for over 6 years now and I'll admit that auditions can be quite stressful. A couple of years ago I had to perform two monologues as part of my final exam in school and the trick I found was to find a spot somewhere in the direction you're meant to face and focus on it. Perform to that spot and pretend no one else exists. After a while you don't even remember that you were nervous to begin with. Anyway, there are a lot of legitimate auditions that do not require experience. I think it's awesome you're making the most of the opportunity. Good luck!

w/e u do don't show your nervous cuz i tried out for cheer leading and girls who didn't show they were scared got picked but we also had 2b loud good luck!
