Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: just read over your lines and hang out with friends before the play that are in the cast because they are probably just as nervous as you are and you can relax each other!. admit to yourself that you are nervous, take a few deep breaths (without hyperventilating), stay focused, and dont think about the audience watching you, but how you can really make the character come alive!. for that time, youre not you, so dont think like you!. think like your character!. remember to project your voice!. and when the curtain comes down, relief and joy will wash over you if you had a good show!. break a leg!Www@QuestionHome@Com I love the night before the big performance, dont run through all your lines, just run through the ones you're unsure of!. Dont look directly at the audience (unless your character is supposed to) and just remember to act like your character, the more you are like your character during your performance, the chance is higher that you wont notice your audience as much or forget your lines!. Drink some water, get a good night's rest and get ready to blow them away! Break a leg!Www@QuestionHome@Com If you forget a word, do not stop, just continue!. Try to use other words that were not in the script!. If your scene partner makes a mistake, do not react to it!. Simply ignore the mistake, or, if it was too large to let pass, improvise around the error!. Ability to improvise is the mark of a true actor!. You’ll feel nervous when you first start out, but it will get easier as you get used to performing in front of crowds!. An added plus is you’ll feel better after you’ve done your performance!. All of your work and nerves will pay off!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Relax and you will do fine! I have preformed on stage more than 100 times and each experience is nerve racking!. The trick is to relax go slow and have FUN!. The nervous feeling will disappear after a little time on the stage and you will do great!. So remember RSF! (Relax, go Slow, have Fun!.) You will do great!!Www@QuestionHome@Com Just dont tell yourself youre gonna mess up!. if you do, your sure to!. you should know your lines, but if you dont, read them over a bunch!. just pretend the audience isnt there, and your voice shouldnt change!. GOOD LUCK!!!Www@QuestionHome@Com imagine your audience in ugly clothing or with crooked teeth!. They will not seem so threatening!. Be as prepared as possible!. Audiences for school plays are notoriously generous critics, so just enjoy the show!.Www@QuestionHome@Com tell yourself you can do it never tell yourself you can't cuz then u can't GOOD LUCKWww@QuestionHome@Com |
