I am 22, and just started amateure acting. I had an audition and I found my mouth totally dried up and I had the need to clear my throat over and over. Luckily despite this the audition went well, but it was my first time, any suggestions to help me out in the future?
Good suggestions above. Here’s another one you can try right now. Pretend that you have a chewy caramel in your mouth. Chew on it for a while; don’t forget to use your tongue to get the caramel off your teeth.
You’ve probably noticed a lot of saliva has been produced. That’s because saliva is the first digestive enzyme, and it’s triggered by the body when we chew.
Those red hot candies are good..Don’t eat too many though or else you’ll run off the stage to get some water haha
Good luck

I’ve been singing and acting now for about 5 years, and I use a homemade trick. I mix lemon and honey in a water bottle and drink some of that before i go on stage. It’s also great for the vocal chords. Also sucking on hard candies some times helps to. Good luck!
