Fred had always been the kind of a guy who preferred chilling with his friends over being the center of attention, so when the drama teacher announced auditions for a school play, he felt a wave of panic wash over him. The thought of standing on stage in the spotlight with everyone watching his every move made him want to hide under his bed instead of being in the centre of attention. The idea of acting, especially in front of a crowd, seemed more terrifying than fun. Deep down, though, there was a little part of him that wondered if maybe, just maybe, he could surprise himself. As the audition day came, Fred became more nervous. His friends were excited and full of ideas about roles they wanted to play, while he stood there, keeping his hands in the pockets, doubting his decision to come at all. Then it was finally his turn. Fred's heart raced like it was about to jump out of his chest as he entered the audition room, the eyes of the casting committee members glared at him. He mumbled his lines, each word feeling heavier than the last, and it was no surprise when he felt a flush of embarrassment wash over him. After the auditions were over, Fred was relieved that it was all done, but a part of him couldn’t shake the feeling that he had missed something special. He watched as his friends celebrated their roles, filled with excitement for the upcoming rehearsals. Fred felt regret for not pushing himself to step out of his comfort zone and let his fear take the wheel. A few days later, as he sat in the cafeteria listening to his friends discuss their characters, Fred realized that perhaps it wasn’t too late to be involved in the drama club, only in a different way. Instead of acting, he could help with setting design or lighting, something that kept him behind the scenes but still part of the amazing experience.
