I am a big musical thatre person, and I will say to do it because it can be one of the best experiences of your life! Smile and be outgoing!. Even if you can not sing or dance that great, the director wants to see people who are willing to take risks if it is to get on stage! So if you are not that great, you will at least maybe get a part in the chorus or something!. Just stay confident!Www@QuestionHome@Com

One thing you might consider is that everyone else feels as you do!.

Part of learning how to walk includes falling down, and if you're interested in being involved in theater at all you might expect some rejections and embarrassing moments!. That could also apply to every aspect of ones life!.

One of the things you might try, is to audition for a part, in which many of the songs are sung in a chorus, very often each voice becomes one song heard by any audience!. I think it's obvious that one should be able to sing, and yet it it's school, not a Broadway Musical that depends on dollars!.

also as a school piece and not knowing how many will audition, or how large the eventual cast will be, very often the turn out is low, and perhaps everyone will be chosen and cast, OR at the very least, given a call back!.

just do it!. what are they gonna do!? put you in school musical jail!? who cares if you dont get a part!. there are many jobs beyond performing!. just have confidence and you will do fine!. if you go up there with the mind set that you are better than any other person trying out, you will be better!. its all about confidence!.(: im in drama at my school!. at the beginning of the year i was failing becasue i never got up and performed!. i had stage fright!. i had to get my grade up so i performed one time!. i definetly wasnt as good as most people!.!. but honestly, nobody even noticed!. they aually applaused me!.

I HOPE I HELPED!!!!!

Im VERY into theatre, and i would tell anyone to go for it!. Through theatre you learn things about yourself (not just your talent, but yourself as a whole), and it really can help people break out of their shells and make lots of friends!. Even if you get cast as an extra, you will still have a blast, believe me!. I'd say go for it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Go ahead! live a little! You might find that it's something you really enjoy! And who cares if you get embarrassed, you'll get over that, you're only human!. And if you mess up, you're probably not going to be the only one!.!.!.so well hope you try out!Www@QuestionHome@Com
