When a very real and unscripted human vulnerability unfolds on stage: For MyWorstMoment 'Succession' and 'The Lost Daughter's' Dagmara Domińczyk tells Nina Metz about experiencing a panic attack midway through a scene while performing in a play.
On “Succession,” Dagmara Domińczyk plays a poker-faced PR exec who is “super corporate and doesn’t let an ounce of emotion out,” she said. “Blazered, buttoned up and there to do a job.
“We had been running for a while and gotten good reviews. I was doing really good work and I loved the cast.“But there was one evening — and I don’t know what triggered it — but I had a full blown panic attack on stage in the middle of a scene, to the point where I felt like I was speaking in tongues.
“I knew I had an exit after this monologue, she goes off to the bathroom. And Adam Rothenberg, who played my husband, after a while he followed me backstage and he grabbed my hands and he was like, ‘You’re going to be OK. I’m going to sit with you here. Just breathe.’ He was so kind and loving. “I first started getting panic attacks when I was in ‘The Violet Hour’ on Broadway with Robert Sean Leonard and my dad was in the hospital. For about two weeks I would be visiting him between the matinee and the evening performance and the stress of that caused me to start having these little panic attacks right before the curtain would go up. And my fellow cast members would say, ‘Breathe. Take a bite of a banana. You’re going to be fine.
“So me literally coming undone and knowing that I probably wasn’t fooling at least half of the audience, that was really scary not just as a performer that night, but as an actor in general. Like, you’re here to do a job and you’re not doing it — and people are going to talk about it. That’s the fear: That I have failed.
