A stage we are going through
The whole world is constantly multi-tasking. What are we doing to ourselves? In some towns and cities the authorities are padding the lampposts in case idiots walk into them while texting. People shave, eat and speak on their mobiles while driving. It is as if nothing demands our full attention these days.
That is why, as a stage performer, you have got to love the spotlight. The raised up stage and a spotlight are the entertainer's allies in the battle against unnecessary multi-tasking. It is a time for the audience to switch off and allow their focus to go to one human being. Yes, the way we used to interact with people.
Most newbie comedians will shade their eyes from the burn of the spotlight, which instantly signals to the audience that they are not comfortable on stage. Or worse still, sometimes the comedian will duck out of the spotlight; this is a real no no.
Even though you can't see the people at the back of the room (usually you can only see the first two rows) you just have to pretend you can see everyone.
