i need an answer TONIGHT!
hey guys.
SO, today! i had an audition workshop! i was MEGA nervous. ive been wanting to act all my life,, and finally started doing something about it. BUT when i walked in everyone was 20...25...30.. and im 16! so it was a little intimidating. and so was my teacher!! he didnt really explain well.. basically he wasnt that good. i didnt really enjoy my time there. i felt like it was making me feel literally sick the whole time and i just wanted to go home. being there just made me feel dumb. they say mondays and wednesdays 6 to 9 we have to be there and just proceed with the lesson. I DONT KNOW if i should go? ive always wanted to act..but that i didnt like.. i dont know what to do, it was really bad for me. i felt useless being there..

Being nervous is a natural thing... staying nervous is a problem. With that in mind, I would go to a few more of these so you can truly know if you are just nervous or in WAY over your head.
If this is your very first acting class, then there is a reason you are feeling sick. Audition classes are for people who have some experience and know their trade-craft backwards and forwards... If that isn't you, then step back and be honest with yourself.
Don't quit... just find a class that is more in line with your current skill set.
If you have already had 3-5 years of acting classes then you might be in the right place, and are just nervous.
As they say: Break a leg! (If you didn't know, that is sort of "Good Luck" among stage people.)
Hope you do well, whatever you end up doing.

i think you should go. its a good experience, it will make you more confident, which acting i think is really all about. if you really want to act, this is a good chance that i think you shouldnt miss. and i am sure that a couple of more workshops you'll loosen up and be more comfortable. its always scary when you somewhere for the first time specially if you dont know anyone. but i think you should give it a try, and forget about everyone else. i really dont think age has anything to do with talent. they might be older but talent doesnt come with older age its something in you. you can be better than any of them because you have the talent and you love what you do and your willing to take chances like that. and honestly i think you can also learn from them for the future. so please go and be brave dont be intimidated you can do it ! and trust me the feeling will go evenually :D and you might make some new friends as well as learn!

Did you think you were going to go in there knowing everything? Did you think your teacher was going to pull you aside and tell you how amazing you are? That's the biz, honey. They break you down to build you back up. Your teacher is assuming his students know certain things before they go in there. Most of your classmates have probably already had some training. What you need is probably a beginner class, not an audition class. You need to learn the basics first, so you're not so insecure when you go into a higher level class. I'd find a beginner class and ditch this one. You're not ready. You WILL be ready, if this is what you want to do, but you're not ready right now.
