Q. I finally made it—a part
In the school play! It's very
exciting, but I'm having a ter
rible time with my lines. How
will I ever mtmoHn them in
time?
A. Congratulations! Sounds
like a lot of fun! One way to
learn those lines is to repeat
them over and over, mentally
speaking the cues as you go.
Better yet, practice with other
cast members, or ask a friend
to cue you. Vary the expression
in your voice to make the
repetition less monotonous
you may discover new ways
to deliver ycur lines. Before
long you'll know them all.
Good luck!
Q. Have I got a problem!
I'm giving a party nest week
