Perfoming Dramatic Monologue I have to perform a dramatic monolouge. I have never done it before although I'm ready to take on the challenge. Please give me tips to stay calm. I sing at my church, so I am use to a big crowd. PLEASE HELP ASAP!!

When i have to perform a monologue, i just take deep breaths before i go on. All you have to do is pratcice so many times till you have it right. When your on stage, just think like your doing it in your room like nobody is watching you. Just put youtself in the position of the scene your acting out and that will help you feel it more. ]
find a good monolouge in a monolouge book, memorize it, and then possibly get someone to watch you- like an acting coach in your area if you know of any.
good luck ]
I just had the same problem, but someone i know gave me great advice.
1. focus just pass the people who are watching you... the wall, or if its just a few people, the chairs behind them. it will look like youre looking at them, but you wont have to.
2. BREATHE! Deep breathing really helps.
3. Think about how much you want to nail it. Get yourself excited to do it, and you won't panic.
4. Show off. Think, "I can do this, and I can do it best. I'll show them how great I am." ]
