What Are Some Dos And Don'ts On Acting For Amateurs?

Some dos and donts for acting for amateurs:

DO:

find something to do as an objective in your scene

speak up and face front unless the director tells you otherwise

be willing to invest in the production, time and energy are required

enjoy the social aspect of amateur dramatics

read the play a few times, so that your choices and decisions are based on the play, not your imagination.

learn your lines nice and early so you are depended upon

DONT

spend all your time trying to avoid doing what's required of you

skip rehearsals, it's impossible to work without you

see the director as an authority figure, they are your friend, your colleague, someone who should help you reach the performance that you need.

be ungracious if you don't get the role that you want, it's not personal

bad talk other actors or the director.
