Question: Memorization tips/help!?
I have to memorize a monologue (about one minute) for class!. Any tips!?Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Really learn the story behind your monologue!. Develop your character so you can ad-lib if you forget something!. :)
Think of key words in one sentence to help you flow to the next sentence!. If you do this for each sentence, it will all flow together and you'll sound great!!
Memorize it part by part!. Read it over many many times, read it aloud several times, then put it away and say as much as you can without looking!. Repeat this process until you can say the whole part, then move to the next section!.!.!.!.

Walk around your house memorizing the monologue, it really really helps than just sitting down!. also, make a little movie in your head of some of the words!. That helps me a lot! Good luck!Www@QuestionHome@Com
