Question: HELP! i want to be an actress!?
hi i am 16 and in my final year of school i really enjoy acting and i do acting in school but there are allot of popular people in my class so i have done very little acting in fear of making a fool of myself!. when we split into smaller groups to do a short script or play i am very quiet and do not get any good parts!.i really think that the teacher wonders why i took drama in the first place!.how can i overcome my fear of making a fool of myself and how can i improve my acting skills!? any answers will be appreciated xxWww@QuestionHome@Com

first you have to get over your shyness!. i was the exact same way when i first started but i started taking other classes in the performing arts field where i felt more in my element, such as dance classes!. that got me use to being in front of people so when it came time to act in front of an audience i wasn't so shy!. i hope that helps or gives you a bit of an ideaWww@QuestionHome@Com
