Question
Hi Kenneth
 What would be your advice be to someone,like myself.That would very much like to get past.The uncomforable stage of being the first time,acting and to be come comfortable in expressing themselves? Just be  able to make that small but big shift.To finally be able to move to the next level.I just know to get passed that orqued stage I'd very much love and be more excited about acting.How can you block out and be confident.And the sillyist thing is,I could get a great reaction.But I'm just at this sticky stage of not knowing.

Answer
Hi Julie, Well acting take courage.  A begining acting class would probably help as would a speech class.  Once you do it, it should be easier the next time. Don't worry everyone starts sometime, they don't begin as experienced actors. So my advice would be to just go ahead and try. Best wishes and God bless, Doc
