My monologue rough draft performance went horrible. Not because
I didn’t know how to perform it, because it’s a matter of knowing my character
to know what she feels and be able to portray her. Since I wrote my character, I
know how she feels. The reason why it didn’t work out is because I got nervous.
Speaking in front of people has always been one of my weaknesses, and since I’m
in drama, it’s one I’ll have to fix soon. During the presentation I decided
that sitting on the floor would portray the character’s weakness and would make
the begging more powerful and real. I also decided that putting my hair down
would make her look messy, adding to the visual part of the presentation. Up to
that everything was good. When it came to actually talking the monologue, I don’t
know what to do with my hands, or what my voice should sound like. I don’t know
how I’m supposed to stare at the public. All this is because I get nervous when
speaking, as I said before; stage fright. And as I said, it’s something I have
to overcome specially through practice.
