Amateur
The amateur on the stage is the earnest, unpolished performer, and in dreams the figure can mark hopes pleasantly fulfilled — or, if the play turns to tragedy, trouble threaded through our happiness. The dream tends to ask where we are stepping into a role unpractised, and how the performance will be received.

These are the entries the historical dream-books record for amateur, in their own words. They are period voices, not predictions, and they do not always agree with one another.
Gustavus Hindman Miller, 1901
To dream of seeing an amateur actor on the stage, denotes that you will see your hopes pleasantly and satisfactorily fulfilled. If they play a tragedy, evil will be disseminated through your happiness. If there is an indistinctness or distorted images in the dream, you are likely to meet with quick and decided defeat in some enterprise apart from your regular business.
