0926 – ‘Park’ Perfection

2023.07.15 – 0926 – ‘Park’ PerfectionThink about:·        Your single listener across the room: it will help you focus your attention on reassuring realities rather than lurking fears·        The fact that the audience can’t harm you. They have turned on to hear what you have to say, to get your opinion and expertise. It’s your job to help them with that·        How you are probably more aware of your nerves than they are. What seemed like a dreadful mistake to you probably went completely unnoticed by them. If you calmly correct yourself (if even that is necessary) they will hardly remember it at all in a few minutes. Pauses too are perceived differently: what may be an eternity to you is imperceptible to them. ·        And they won’t have heard your grumbling stomach or seen your sweaty palms.·        Perfection in the performing arts is difficult if not impossible to define. So ‘park’ perfection and aim for sincerity and the best performance you can manage. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
