Question

I do local theatre, but I don't usually dream about acting. If I have, it's been about a show I was in the middle of, but I haven't done a show recently.

I dreamt I was backstage at an awards ceremony, but I was continually on the wrong side of the stage. I'd run back & forth, but was always blocked by props and never made it on time.

It was annoying at first, but then I became frantic when I won for best actress or supporting actress (I couldn't hear which) and I couldn't get out there to accept it. Because of that, the organizers got someone else to present the award I was to do (b'c they thought I wasn't there.)

Finally, our show won the evening and I desperately decided to climb over all the crazy props to get out there, but I'm afraid of heights & I cried at the top b'c it was an insane obstacle course to get thru of unsteady mattresses, boxes, lamps, etc. I wasn't dressed right & was still too late when I finally got there - alone & in the dark.

Would love your help!

Answer 1

man, you sound like those whining actors who say they're really good but whine all the time about simple stuff.  I think it means you think your a great actor, but you really know you aren't.  Better get a different job.

Answer 2

I'm not much of a dream interpreter, but maybe it means that you feel like you have many obstacles in you life right now, and you just can't find a way to get around them. If and when you do get things on track finally, you find that you're too late for a certain opportunity.  Maybe it's just a sign of some kind of frustration or aggravation in your life right now.  A few years ago I was going through a lot of stress in my life, and for a long time I had a recurring and scary dream of choking on something.  It was so real that I would sit up in bed and heave and cough to try to unstick whatever it was from my throat.  Of course this would cause me to wake up.  I just contributed it to the stress, maybe I felt like I was "choking" on my problems, like they were strangling me.  These are just my ideas, anyway.
