No Regretzzzz

In any art, there are times when you have to go out on a limb. This being said, when you do go out on a limb...and fail miserably...it feels pretty much like you spilled spaghetti sauce all down your new white shirt.
And when it comes to Theatre, going out on a limb can mean failing miserably in front of 500+ people.
However, you need to learn to live with no regrets.
One thing that can cripple any theatrical experience is running over a scene in your head and thinking, "Now, I could have done that. That could have been done with way more emotion. That was just tacky..." etc.
Be proud of the way you act. Be proud of the art that you put out there, even if you thought it might have failed. Don't shoot yourself in the foot, OR LOOK FOR ATTENTION, by saying that you could have done a scene or a line better. Act the way you act.
Regrets are just the things you dwell on. Everyone else has already moved on.
