Question 22 of 25

What was the biggest audience you have performed in front of?

The interviewer wants to know how comfortable are you with performing in front of large crowds. If you want to perform in front of hundreds of people, you have to reach some of those smaller goals, like starring in the latest adaptation of Peter Pan in a small mountain town theater.

The more comfortable you become with larger audiences, the more opportunities you have to perform. With that experience, your confidence grows and you can take on different challenges. As you talk about your experience, even if you have only performed in small plays, talk about your goals and how you are working towards them.

      "I have performed in front of audiences of all sizes. If I can recall correctly, the largest audience was likely around 800 individuals. That was while performing at our city's annual holiday production. I love performing in front of large crowds. It's exhilarating!"
