Perform the speech just as I showed you, clearly and smoothly. If you want to speak louder as bad actors usually do, I might willingly look for a newscaster to read the lines for me. Don’t overuse too many hand gestures; just do as few as possible, moderately, like this. If a powerful tempest of passion comes on you while you are on stage, keep your emotions moderate and smooth. I deeply hate a wig wearing, a bombastic actor that tears a passion into shreds, bursting everyone’s ears to impress the audience on the lower levels of the playhouse. Most of these people only appreciate loud noises and meaningless gesture shows. I would punish an actor for making a tyrant sound too tyrannical. That really is as bad as those antiqued plays
