By Minnie Whitley


A play is a form of literature that is consists of dialogues in a script between characters. This is made for a theater performance rather than for reading. You would notice plays that are being watched by many people.

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.

Phoenix is a capital city of Arizona. Phoenix is considered to be the largest city there. Phoenix, AZ is also known as sixth largest city of the United States. It is more than a city on a desert. It is also very rich in arts and culture. One would never wonder if they watch some plays they might consider as the best ones.

If you want to join the theater acting industry, you must follow some guidelines. The first thing would be in teaching yourself to relax. You have to learn relaxing the muscles on your face and your body. If you feel tense, it would be noticeable. It will make your voice waver and movements 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.

You have to speak clearly when acting. You have to show emotions but avoid overacting for it. When you perform, do everything to make the audience believe who you are trying to be. The little actions you would do will be noticeable. You can change your voice and accent.

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.
