Day 3-5 - Lines, Lines, Lines
Posted Date: 06 December 2011 at 11:18:51AM
I've read and mined both plays, worked out the objectives of each character and now it's time to learn the lines.
I learn lines on the bus, on my lunch break, in the queue waiting for coffee, at the beach, I even mumble them under my breath at my casual job in a surf shop. The customers probably think I'm crazy, my coworkers already know I'm crazy and to be honest I don't care. I want to be prepared for this audition.
Besides, all the moronic mumbling will pay off. At my coaching session with Kari I'll know both pieces off book allowing me to focus on the work.
Maybe I should write a blog about my technique and call it: "How to Learn Lines at Lightning Speed" with a sub-title that reads: "Just Be Prepared to Look Like an Idiot".
