Memorising a Shakespeare speech (1 Viewer)

[myuxx]

I was wondering whether anyone had any tips regarding memorising a speech from Shakespeare. I have heard that a speech in iambic pentameter is easier to memorise than prose.

Any tips?

Thanks in advance

Personally, i do not find it too hard... well, being an actor; especially with major work with bell shakespeare and the like kind helps, though i still have to learn the scripts and i find the easiet way is just repetition! Learn the first line; repeat it over and over without looking, then add the second line etc! Or do a few lines at a time etc; you really do get there!!


Whats the speech for?
