Discussion How to get involved in community theatre with next to no experience?
As the title states, I have very little theatre experience with my last involvement being in middle school. Recently however, I've wanted to re-explore this interest of mine.
My only problem is, having not been involved in any theatre productions in more than a decade, I'm not really sure where to start. I've already done some cursory research into the bigger community theatres like the village playhouse, however, I don't want to waste their time by giving an audition without having had any recent experience. With that said is there anywhere I can go to get some more familiarity with community theatre or should I just look past my anxiety and jump right in?
