Hey guys! I'm writing this thread about something I've been quite hesitant over the last few days. I've always liked theatre, and have wanted to perform in a play, even if it may sound contradictory because of my SA. I have looked for theatre clubs and workshops, but first, they are so expensive, and then, people there would be sooo sociable and such extroverts... So that's why I haven't joined anyone of them.
Now, near my town, there is always a popular and amateur traditional play on Christmas. I guess I could join if they had any free roles, which is quite likely, and besides, I am quite familiar with the text because I've seen the play almost every year of my life since I was like 3. Actually, my parents used to force me to have a small part in the play when I was a kid (how much I used to hate that!!), but now I really feel like performing. The problem is, what will people think if I suddenly appear today at the meeting, after so many years of absence? Wouldn't it be quite unpolite? What if I am unwelcome? And apart from that, if I perform in the play, I will have to have dinner with the other actors after every performance, which I don't really look forward to... :: I'm so nervous because the first meeting is tonight. I have promised to myself that I will go, but what I dread are the plays, and I'm afraid that maybe I'll regret it in the future :: So, just tell me, what would you do if you were me?
Thanks for reading and understanding, really
