Stage Fright is a very normal thing to have. Even Barbra Streisand had it! I halted my live performances after I didn't dance anymore (that was another story!). I can’t really tell you what caused my fear, but I will tell you how it affected my life in so many ways. I want to mention that stage fright also never stopped the idea of performing on stage for me, it just stopped me from actually doing it (if that makes sense).
