How can I remember my lines in a play?

• Answer #1

  I would keep saying one line out loud over and over and over until it's stuck in your brain. Then say the next line over and over and over until it's stuck in your brain. Then say them both together over and over and over until they are stuck in your brain. Keep going until you have it all memorized. Pretty time consuming, but I think that's the best way. When you're saying your lines out loud, you could also try using different voices, accents, emotions, etc. That might help you become more familiar with the line. Another thing you could try is recording the entire play on an audio device and then listen to it over and over again. Not only will that help you memorize your own lines, but you'll also know your cues. Or, you could record everyone elses lines on audio, leaving space for you to say yours. When you listen to it, say your lines where they fit in.

Or like the way we all learn the words to a song. But practice every chance you get. & youtube whatever you can on acting classes. And see how it's done.
