About this ebook
Musical theatre is a challenging art form, and performers are often hard workers with a drive for perfectionism that breeds a fear of failure, which becomes the seed for performance anxiety to flourish. Performance anxiety can be a devastating blow to a passionate performer’s career and enjoyment of their craft, but it doesn’t have to be that way – performance anxiety is a normal human reaction that can be overcome if given the right resources, patience, and support system. This eBook is a resource for musical theatre performers, educators, students and enthusiasts who wish to diagnose, understand and correct anxiety issues that are holding them back from giving their best performances, and enjoy themselves fully while participating onstage. Includes exercises that can be adapted for all ages and settings.

Welcome to Musical Theatre U
Overcoming Performing Anxiety for Musical Theatre Performers is an eBook created by Musical Theatre U, your online resource with everything you need to land your next starring role. Musical Theatre U offers training programs, private coaching and industry insider information for musical theatre students, professionals and enthusiasts.
Musical theatre is a demanding career path shrouded in mystery to those who are just getting started, and can be both extremely rewarding and equally frustrating, depending on the tools available to you and the choices you make. Created by Erin Roberts-Hall, musical theatre performer and educator, Musical Theatre U is a place to find honest industry information, career advice, and training programs to become the very best performer you can be.
