What is the secret to get over stage fright?!?

  • I have some things I have to do for school this year including giving dialogs, presentations, and singing a solo. what is the secret to getting over stage fright? WITHOUT DRUGS. all remedies, tricks, and tips are welcome. thanks for answering, i really need the help.

  • Answer:

    Recited your lines until there is no way to forget them and just think "I am so much better than everyone here!" And make sure you BELIEVE it! It may sound narcissistic, but an actress gave me this advice and now the stage is like my second home! I'm a goof ball in front of friends and shy in front of others, but because of this advice I was able to play a bad mother, drug addict on stage in front of all my family, friends, and my school recently! It was awesome!

Hi Delilah The only way is through mediation before the show or gig. Deep breathing is what calms you. Just remeber that you are the one performing. So everybody else in the audience probably can't sing or do what you are about to do. That should be comforting to you.

Deep breaths. You have worked hard on your piece and you know you can do it. Encourage yourself that you know you can do it. I wish you luck!

Hello,you asking the answer to an age old question,I was a guitarist for along time and played many shows in front of thousands.There are a few different ways to handle stage fright.One thing that I found to help was to go to stage while the place was still empty and get comfortable with the surroundings.That way when you do your thing everything isn't brand new.It's kinda like creating a safe place for your self where you feel comfortable.I used this method alot and alot of artist use it.Another is yoga,you develop the ability to calm your mind on your own no matter what the situation is.But it is natural to feel a little nervous.It makes you alert to your surroundings and will pass.Hope this helps and good luck.

make sure you're well prepared in what ever it is you are performing and make sure you only focus on what your doing and the people you're doing it with,not so much the fact you're doing it in front of other people. if you mess up don't acknowledge it just keep going because most times the audience can't tell.

Stage fright is your friend. It's what makes you want to give your best performance every single time. Even veteran actors have stage fright.
