New school, new people, new subject, new you. You can totally be somebody else around your new class mates if you get ready for it over the summer holiday. Meet as many new people and talk to anyone and everyone you can, at bus stops, in shops, people you sort of know but who aren't your friends, just be really open and care free.

I think there will be several students in drama class that are beginners.

No point in going to theatre if you are shy...
or if you are second geussin yourself then its not your passion
i know tryin new things are gud but to me theatre/acting is passion

you obviously enjoy art and quite gud at it

it's ok to be scared, more than likely there will be others a bit shy in theatre. I can remember the first time i had to act in front of everyone, i shook so bad from being so nervous. But, after that i was ok with getting in front of everyone and acting. Theatre is a form of creativity just like art is. Either one is good to choose from. What ever class you choose, you will like and enjoy so don't worry too much.

Pick theatre if you want to get over your shyness-- it will force you out of your shell, beginning theatre classes are designed pretty much for just that (that's why we play all those silly games)

Art is good but it is pretty much a solo activity so it won't help you to break out of your shyness.

FYI very few people in highschool theatre know what they are doing they just pretend they do :)

ok I just went into middle school and I knew I was shy but I really wanted to do drama so I went with drama and I l-o-v-e it my teacher was the best go with drama you will enjoy it if your not into it, see if you can switch and know that my semester is over I get to try out for adv. drama YES!! just go with what you want. you can do it
