i need to know my lines by Monday so i need some ways to help memorize my lines PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!!!!!!!Www@QuestionHome@Com Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: Waited too long for help!. I once had to replace my Olivia in that play because she could not learn the lines!. It is the first responsibility of acting to learn your lines, and always do so before they are due!.Www@QuestionHome@Com have it playing over and over again!. your'll get it then!. its like music, if you have a song replaying!. you get annoyed because you know all of the words and it bugs you because you want to hear something diffenent but if someone asked you "what song is by rihanna, that goes 'But you put on quite a show You really had me goin' But now it's time to go Curtains finally closin' That was quite a show Very entertainin' But it's over now Go on and take a bow' " your'll know it and be like "its Take A Bow" or if they say one word wrong you'll be like "haha!. thats not the right word" but listen to it over and over again!. your'll get it!. i had to do a musical!. singing and talking!. so not fun!. and to add it was one of the leading roles!. and i was so scary of not getting the songs right, or my lines!. and i didnt that!. and did!. ^^Www@QuestionHome@Com Along with all these other great answers, I'd write them down on paper!. While you're doing so, really think about the words and read them over!. My acting coach told me this and it really helped!. Good luck, hope this helps! also, keep on saying them as much as you can! Get them stuck in your mind and whenever you have a moment, start rehearsing :)Www@QuestionHome@Com Shakespeare is hard, but it helps to circle all of the images in your lines and picture them in your head!. Then practice your lines and think of those images!. If you already have your blocking, associate what line you say with the blocking that goes along with your part!.Www@QuestionHome@Com Keep reading the lines aloud, while acting the scene!. Then try it completely from memory!. After that you will know what you need to work on!. Try this a line at a time and you will get it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com It always helps if you try and put it into a song!. =]Www@QuestionHome@Com Try makeing a song or ryme!Www@QuestionHome@Com record them and play them while you sleep!.!.!. I've done that like a bazillion times!.Www@QuestionHome@Com |
