I hope I can help...i used to be a nervous type. Well if your stomache gets messed up then tighten your thigh muscles...and practice everything in your head. It should help relive stress and make you feel more confident. With learning your lines...just keep practicing them over and over. If you know them completely by heart, then you wont be as nervous. Auditions are intimidating but they have to be. If they werent, people would think the acting is easy and two words: DEFINATELY NOT!! Being nervous for a show actually makes you perfrom better but freezing and shaking onstage is no good. Whenever i got nervous i would look at the exit signs right next to the doors across the stage. It would help me feel better and have something to concentrate on so i wouldnt be looking into the crowd. Don't worry hun. It looks like this is one of your first auditions and its perfectly normal to be nervous. With more experience, you'll gain more confidence. I hope you get the part you want and break a leg out there!
