How do I get over stage fright?

How do I get rid of stage fright?

  • Answer:

    First of all you should be well prepared to act good (meaning knowing you lines moves and etc.) Then you should just not pay attention on the audience sitting in front of you, but because it is a public act you are supposed to look at the audience, just look slightly above them, never look into their eyes, also I was once told that to get rid of your stage fright you should imagine that everyone sitting in the audience is not completely naked. I was told that this should work. On the other hand I can really guarantee you, that you will not be frightened on the stage, that is how human psychology works, you may be nervous before the act, but once you are already on the stage and you have already turned into the character you are playing, you will completely forget about your fright. Trust me I always had a stage fright before any time I go on stage, but then after a little while I completely start to enjoy being on stage and only a hard punch to the face would make me go away from the stage.
