I have a cat and a dog. My cat's name is Luna. I work as an actress. I own tickets for a play in June. I am an actor.
I am unemployed. I live with my parents. I was born in June. I will turn 17 next June. I own a cat. My cats name is Leo DiCaprio.
My play has been cancelled. I'm sorry to hear that! Which play were you supposed to be in? I was going to be in a version of Hamilton, but oh well... I'm sure I can find another play. Maybe not another lead role, but hopefully something fun. Have you ever been in a play? No, I'm not very good at being in front of large groups. I'm definitely afraid of public speaking. Have you always been comfortable being in front of lots of people? It was a process for sure! I didn't like it at first, but I've discovered that if I just go fully into the role and pretend like the people are seeing the character, not me, I can do it just fine. Have you ever taken a speech class? How did you find out you weren't good with being in front of large groups? I am in a speech class right now because my school requires it. When I had to give my first speech in front of the class, I got so nervous that I almost fainted! My parents said that they'll be my audience for the next one so that I can practice, but I don't get nervous in front of them. Do you have any tips? Sure! One thing that works for me is to remember that if anyone else were in my shoes, they would be nervous too, and that helps keep me calm. Also, it helps to really research what you're talking about, so you know you have all the information you need, and you can be confident in your knowledge. Look around the room, but I've found it's better not to make eye contact, but just gaze near someone's face. They can't tell the difference, and it keeps the pressure low. Those are some good ideas. My mom said to picture everyone in their underwear, but I don't want to imagine myself talking to a room of people in underwear. How old were you when you started acting? Haha I agree! I think that's a little silly myself. I was actually really young. I was 7 when I began, and it took off from there. I guess I never really had time to be nervous. Oh wow, that is young. Did you get into it because you wanted to, or did your parents want you to do it? I think a little of both. My parents knew I would enjoy it, but I thought it looked cool too. Have you ever done anything just to make your parents happy? Yeah, I played the saxophone in middle school because my mom wanted me to "be musical", as she put it. I dropped that once I got into high school, though, because I just didn't enjoy it. Do you play any instruments?
