class addresses high stakes situations and how to involve yourself in a process
that puts you in control. The energy that fear, doubt and lack of confidence
generates is crippling to the creative process. ACTING BY MISTAKE will give you

opportunity.</span></p>

talking while you audition or perform, have difficulty looking another actor
directly in the eye, can only say a line on way or you just lack confidence in
your own skills. It focuses on specifically what to do when you step onto the
stage to audition, rehearse, or perform. There is no pretense; just practical
suggestions for situations you encounter everyday as a developing artist.</span></p>
