Was chatting with Lexi (Happy Birthday!) last night and when I brought up the topic of theater and acting...

Lexi: what happend to that stage fright?
Lexi: wala na?
Me: hahaha
Me: stage fright?
Lexi: diba may stage fright ka
Lexi: kaya ka palagi backstage?
Me: hahaha
Me: nah
Me: i don't think i ever encountered stage fright.. takot lang of doing a mediocre performance

I don't think I ever mentioned having stage fright, or even it being the reason of my passion of working backstage in theater.

What is stage fright, really? Sure, I do get intimidated, I don't have that much confidence, but I don't really know the real meaning of stage fright. Is it the fear of having to be in front of people? Is it the same as what I feel; the feeling of pulling off just a so-so performance?
