Ad libbing is what such actors are doing.
They are called lines
The lines for depression are called hachured lines
The lines are called perpendicular lines.
Either intersecting lines or perpendicular lines
On the globe they are called lines of LATITUDE and are parallel to the equator.
When actors get their lines that they have to say for a movie or a play, they get a script which has all of their lines on it and the other peoples lines that they are filming or performing with.
Written text that includes lines for the actors
You don't need a shell script to do this - just use the 'tail' command.
#!/bin/sh wc -lw "$1"
"Off-book" for actors means that they have memorized their lines and no longer need to read from the script during rehearsals or performances. It allows actors to focus on their performance and interactions with other cast members.
Not only at the Globe but at all Elizabethan and Jacobean theatres, of which there were several dozen, actors got partial scripts called "sides" with only the actor's lines and his cues on it. This was to discourage actors from selling the scripts to a rival company.
This question is very difficult to answer with any degree of accuracy. Consider just a few of the indeterminate variables which need to be considered in order to find an average length of time for "shakespearean [sic] actors to memorize the script". How many actors? Can the actors read? How quickly can the actors read? Do any of the actors who are capable of reading have a photographic memory? If the actors can't read, when can someone help with memorization? How many lines need to be memorized? Is the language in which the script is written the actors' first language? If not, how fluent are they in the language of the script? Is the memorization process delayed because the actors have to wait for changes or new pages from the playwright?
Go to google type script for the clique movie and click where it says remembered lines and transcript
These are usually called 'asides'.
You don't need a script, just use the 'wc' command: # Lines wc -l <file> # Words wc -w <file>
You can highlight your lines, practice your part, memorize lines, and take it to rehearsals to read for people who are absent and to be of use. When the show ends, I like to keep the script so I can hold onto the memories.
