Yes, a lot of this. Most of my anxiety is social anxiety, and I've done a fair bit of amateur stage and national debates and things like that. Because, again, most of it is scripted, so I don't have to make witty things up on the fly or pretend to be functional in face-to-face interaction, the fact that I'm being a character adds a layer of insulation against the paranoid terror that people are judging me, and also the audience in most cases is over there, too big to matter individually, and often in the dark compared to me so I don't have to look people in the eye (and can sometimes even pretend they're not there at all).

I have stood up to give speeches in front of hundreds of people, and it was infinitely easier than one face-to-face conversation with someone I was actually responsible to.
