Method acting

By lol123 - 10/07/2009 10:09 - Norway

Today, it was the premiere of a huge play I've worked on for months. The latest week we've practised a lot, resulting in little sleep. In one of the scenes I'm just lying there pretending to be asleep. Guess who actually fell asleep? FML

Same thing different taste

Today, I had to pretend to give birth in a play. I wanted to make it a realistic as possible but ended up crapping myself on stage by accident. FML

Today, I auditioned for a part in a play. I've been practicing for months, and was very excited. After I'd finished singing, the director whispered something to the other judges, and they all laughed. Hard. So much for the lead role. FML

Today, I was in a play and had a battle scene. I got a little too into it and wound up twisting my ankle. The audience was treated to me screaming like a little girl before face-planting the stage a moment later. FML

Today, I was sent the script to a play I'm participating in at school. After reading it a couple of times, I noticed that my part has been forgotten completely. FML

Today, it was opening night for the play where I was, for the first time ever, one of the leads. I went on stage with a loud and energetic entrance. I came in two scenes early. FML

Today, after spending hours of my time painting sets for the last two months - with less dedication than only the head painter herself, and to the point where my health and grades suffered - I finally got to see the play I worked so hard on. I was the only one they forgot to put in the playbill. FML

Drama!

By Anonymous - 09/02/2013 01:00 - Netherlands - Zwijndrecht

Today, I was rehearsing for a school play. My drama teacher keeps criticising the part where I fake-trip, saying I make it look terribly fake. During today's rehearsal, I actually tripped for real, and smashed my kneecaps against the floor with a scream. He still said my "acting" sucked. FML

Making the scene

By billie - 29/04/2025 15:00 - United States - Los Angeles

Today, I had my first day in an acting class. Our assignment was to perform a dramatic monologue. I got super into it, threw myself into character, and dramatically fell to my knees to deliver a line. Unfortunately, my knees slipped, and I faceplanted into the floor in front of the entire class.

Today, I proudly presented my research project in class that I've worked for day and night for 3 weeks straight. My teacher fell asleep. FML

Act three, scene one

By anon - 12/08/2024 14:00 - New Zealand

Today, I was performing in a community theater production. Right before my big scene, I felt a sneeze coming on. I tried to hold it in, but it came out with such force that I lost my balance, fell off the stage, and landed in the lap of the mayor, who was in the front row. My character’s dramatic entrance was unforgettable for all the wrong reasons. FML

Jackass (referring to Mcbane) I live a better and happier life then you could probably ever dream of having. I live in a 4,000 square foot house (not including the fully furnished basement) and as for my "**** sucking abilities" I am surprised by your profanity right before saying that everybody else on this website is gay. Oh and by the way, I am a 10 year old girl in South Dakota, so I don't really suck cocks, unlike some ******* jackass mother *******... Like you!

if you're only ten years old, why are you cussing like that? and how can you compare your life to anyone's? mcbane's comment was unnecessary and stupid, but your reply doesn't help.

Who said I was trying to help? Maybe I enjoy mocking other people online. And anyways, why do you care if I cuss?

That happened to me before too! except it was in the dress rehearsal, NOT the actual performance. I made sure to keep myself awake for that one. hahaha

lots of us do. what's the point? did you ruin the scene? did you forget your lines because of this? did you get completely out of character and throw everyone else off? just falling asleep onstage doesn't affect anything. it's what you do when you wake up - or don't/can't wake up - that can ruin a scene. just falling asleep onstage is in itself *not* and FML.

Hooray for English being a bad language due to its origin! Let's just all learn Korean or something, and standardize the spelling and pronunciation at dictionary.com. Anyone else annoyed that you can't see the phrase "**** my life" or "Your life is ******" or even "your life is f***ed" on this site anymore? Maybe it's on here somewhere, but "I agree, your life sucks" is dumb.
