*New Thought Paragraphs* Shakespeare Word Invention* How a Character Feels*

*New Thought Paragraphs*

This website breaks down a speech in Measure for Measure to help actors understand the lines.  One of the strategies is to break it into "new thought paragraphs" to chunk meaning.   I like that phrase!

Shakespeare Word Invention* 

Tim Urban has Shakespeare-invented words that are linked to specific passages.  Here's the link to the website he took it from.

How a character is feeling in a speech*

Another Shakespeare link.  RSC has short videos from actors about a variety of topics to help understand speeches.  This one talks about how an actor notices details in language.
