ABSTRACT

In many ways, this presents an even greater danger than a bad review. A positive review is always nice for your ego and can certainly draw more people to your shows, but again it is only the “two cents” of another person. Try not to take such praise too much to heart, if only because you will be setting yourself up for an even bigger disappointment when you get a bad review. And believe me, sooner or

later everyone gets a bad review. So learn what you can from both good and bad reviews, clip out the good ones and add them to your promotional package, and then forget them all and keep your mind focused on the real task at hand: the nurturing of your own creative voice.
