LOS ANGELES – Christina Ricci still gets "really bad stage fright".
The ‘Pan Am’ actress – who wowed theatre goers and critics with her performance on Broadway in ‘Time Stands Still’ opposite Laura Linney last year – is slowly getting over her nerves but still gets "really scared" before a performance.
She told Manhattan magazine: "When I was younger I had really bad stage fright, and when I got older, I kinda forgot about having stage fright and was more open to doing plays. I felt less scared, but I’m still really scared. I felt less crippled than I have in the past."
Christina, 31, shot to fame as a child star with roles in movies including ‘Mermaids’ ‘Casper’ and ‘The Adams Family’ and credits her early acting days with giving her "depth" as an actress.
She said: "I loved playing the roles that I did as a child. I’ve always been quite happy with the identity they’ve given me as long as people don’t take that too literally. I think they gave me a great depth of position as an actress from which to start my adult career."
