Ever experience your body going into in voluntary tremors, Sweat dripping from every pour of your body, your heart beating faster than an engines piston, then comes the great dissapointment of all you open your mouth to say your lines and all you can hear is a shaky stuttering voice.......
Its called Stage fright,Every ameature actor has to suffer afew times on thier first encounter with the stage.....this its not a phobia to be precise and just the fear of the unknown...
I remember this particlar day we had been invited to go and perform in Meru eastern province.On the eve of the performance was the day we finalized the screen shooting with K.I.E.
I was approached by this lady by the name june she was a Promotion Manager.She was loooking for a group to perform for her shows. she had been able to achieve more than five venues.
The cast was thrilled to here about the shows. We gathered our selves and had a full cast for the paly. We were supposed to perform a play by the name Aminata.
on the day of depature Our main character who was supposed to play Aminiata herself went missing 30 minutes before depature. Alternatively we chose one lady within the group who was new. She was forced to cram the lines over nite.....
The following morning we were on stage. I was furios, restless but yet contained,there was nothing or little i could do.
the Audience had paid and the show had to continue. After an thrilling first scene that had ended in a climaxed crescendo.It was Aminata's scene...
she had a powerfull body structure that easily illuminated her stage prescence, her voice was audible and her confidence was thrilling.
Her entrance had captivated the audience, they had already pictured the full profile of Aminata's profile. Whistling, Claps and cheers filled the auditorium.
I was at standing on the left front stage throwing darts
