Help... Nerves!

[Jarrod]

I've got a performance for School tomorrow and i'm seriously panicking.

I can't remember my lines, i don't know what i'm doing and i can't concentrate.

[Jordan.]

Practice your lines now? :laugh:

[Doogle]

Yeah I have a short Dickens performance on Sunday and I don't know the lines. We've only been doing it for 2 weeks cos it's a little thing but yeah I am nervous cos I'll mess up lolol.

But yeah, just read it. A LOT. In your head, out loud. Whatever. Don't bother with the cover up and try to remember it ****, just read it so much and it sticks, and whenever you rehearse don't have the script on you because your mind will go blank and you'll be forced to look at the script (irrelevant to this but just a tip cos I always do it LOL)

[MeMyselfAndI]

My Head of House asked me to do something like that and i just said no chance

Record yourself on your phone/Ipod and play it back constantly.....Worked for me in my oral exams.

As soon as you get your lines, you should learn them. That's what I used to do. Silly leaving them until last minute.

[Jordan.]

What do you think i'm trying..

idk but no one on TiBB can exactly help?

All you can do is practice it over.

[Marsh.]

Don't go in.

[Roy Mars III]

Write the lines on your hand.

I've had them for about 3 Days..

[Doogle]

Just sit down, turn off all distractions like computer, tv, music etc. and just read them. :)

[Iceman]

Pfft or just ignore my advice altogether :hmph:

I hate my voice.. :L

[Doogle]

You'll hate it even more tomorrow when you're going "um um um um um um" on stage when you don't know your lines :hmph:

[Callum]

So why didn't you start learning them 3 days ago then?

[Jarrod]

I have. They're just hard to understand. Shakespeare makes no sense!

[Jarrod]

Try a bit of meditation, or sitting outside for a bit and just look at the stars. It'll calm you down, then start learning them again. The more you panic the worse your concentration will get. :)
