Projection & Articulation

Cast Members should always practice their lines with crisp clear articulated words - making sure we hear the entire word!  And they should also be practicing their lines with projected voices as much as possible - remember your voice needs to travel to the back of the theatre and we DO NOT use microphones!

I know your'e all loud enough to get your voices from the Stage to the Back Wall of the Auditorium, I hear you when you're not on stage!  He he he!!!  :)

Here are a few tongue twisters to help with articulation:
Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers,
A peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked.
If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers,
Where's the peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked?

Irish Wrist Watch

Unique New York

I had a Hippopotamus
I kept him in a shed
I fed him up on vitamins (vit-ah-mins)
And vegetable bread (veg-ah-tah-ble)
Lest he should be affected by depression or the dumps
By Hippopotomeasles or Hippopotomumps!
