Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: please i need someones advice on what to do

Okay, well I suggest...

On Day 1 and 2...read through your lines..over and over for at least 30 mins each time..I personally find if I re-read something over and over I tend to remember little bits of it.

Day 3...Read each line and say it aloud...do this once over and then see if you can say the first few without looking...doing small bits at a time and then adding them altogther works for me.

Day 4...make sure you can read at least the first 5 lines by yourself..if not just practise those lines...and before you go to bed read through the whole script..

Day 5...hopefully you have remembered the first 5 lines..try the next 5..read them one and a time to yourself...then read them and look away from the paper and repeat them..hopefully it's getting easier to remember the lines..
Remember read before you go to bed again!

Day 6...Okay fingers crossed..do you know your 10 lines? brilliant if you do..if your still not confident with them...do what you did yesterday...Even write out the first 10 lines...on a piece of paper..and just reciete them without looking at the paper and if you get stuck you can have a little look...
Re-read the script again before you go to bed..:P

Day 7...okay now it's for the last 5 lines!!!!! Do what you did for the other lines..just practise them...look at the line..look away and say it aloud..to things like that..

Day 8...Hopefully you have everything down pat..you may be a little haistie about the last 5 lines..well pay special attention to them..write out the whole script! (well your parts anyway)..try not to look at the script while you write them out..

Day 9...I'm hoping you know all your lines? well put away the script..and say them aloud..in your head..whenever you get the chance..say them infront of your parents...brother sister...whatever...

and on Day 10...you know all your lines :P:P

SO basically my tips are too..

-Read the script before you go to bed..
-Re-read the script over and over when you first get it..hopefully you read it so much..some parts stay in your head..
-Write out your lines..this helps me..and if you make a mistake..go back and focus on the line..
-Practise practise practise!!!!..try practising in front of the mirror so you know what you look like when your delievering them.

I hope this helped..
and if you need any other tips feel free to email me..

Good Luck!

turn it in to a rap song =)

um. That's not a lot at all. i once learned 40 lines in one night. Just concentrate and read each line 19 or 20 times a day, and before you go to sleep. By the last day, they should be memorized.

15 lines? Do not make me laugh. I learned an entire Show in 10 days.

Read it, Read it, Read it.
Say it, Say it, Say it.
Write it, Write it, Write it.

When you can write your lines, you know your lines.

Now work on your Cues.
