[Number 9 Dream]

Congrats to your sister! Acting can be quite nerve-wracking, and throw singing on top of it just makes it even more so. I know because I did it myself for the first time a few years ago (I was in Godspell twice, and although I didn't have a lead role, I had quite a few lines to remember, not to mention choreographed dances and my own solo).

The best thing for her to think about while she is up there is she's a character for that moment in time, not herself. If you think in your mind, 'Oh, this isn't me...I'm so-and-so for the night', then it takes a little pressure off (that's if you're good in believing in that, lol).

Another tip to remember is if you make a mistake, don't sweat it! Keep on going on like nothing happened. Everyone is bound to make a slip-up at one point or another, so there's no sense in sweating it.


I hope that helped a bit...I really can't think of any more tips other than that. I had such a good time doing those plays...I wish I could do some more! I miss acting
