A Guide On How To Be A Great Actor On Plays

By Minnie Whitley


A play is a type of literary work which is composed of scripted dialogues between different characters. It is made specifically for a performance on theater rather than to read it. One could observe some plays where many people line up to watch.

Aside from a good dialogue, a play would also require some actors to act on it. They put the script to life with their skills and talents. You would be impressed on how they act. You can see really good ones on Phoenix plays.

The capital city of the state of Arizona is Phoenix. This is known to be the largest of all its cities. Phoenix AZ is also sixth in the list of the largest cities in United States. You would see more than just the city in a desert. The place has really rich arts and culture. You could never doubt you would watch the best of the best plays there.

If you think of being in the field of acting in a theater, there are tips you could follow. The first one is to be able to learn to relax. You need to learn how you can relax your muscles in the face and body. When you are tense, the audience will easily notice that. Your voice will waver and some movements would become unattractive.

Another tip is to keep yourself in the moment. This will allow you to remain in character. Become the character you are playing. Visualize how that person would react to life, how he dress, moves or talk with others. Do not be afraid to be someone else.

One has to talk clearly when he is acting. The emotions must be shown without being overacting. While you perform on stage, you have to do everything so that the audience would believe who you are portraying. Those actions may be little but it is noticed easily. You may make your voice and accent change.

Teach yourself on how you would be able to project. Acquire a recorder. Put that recorder away from where you are, press the record button and then be away from it. Talk about anything. After doing it, listen on how you have sounded. Do those steps again and be sure to back away much further to learn projecting more. Practice vocal warm ups so you will not have your vocal cords strained. Focus on talking clearly. It is essential in making your audience understand the word you say. Speak with emotions. Facial expression is essential too. Make different kinds of that while you face the mirror and look at your face as you do that. Practice the script whenever you have opportunity.

You should meet other people. They will be able to teach you more about their views. You can also watch other actors on how they act so that you can learn more. This will help you develop your style. You may also ask them questions. Do not worry of stage fright. When the stage lights are on, you would hardly see your audience.

Remember the guidelines in becoming a good actor. It will aid you in improving your skill. You could even get a big role.
