[Perform-Talk] Alternative Techniques for Performing Arts

[Bridgit Kuenning-Pollpeter]

This is a fantastic thread. I would like to hear how actors go about
learning scripts. Due to a mild nerve condition, reading Braille is tedious
for me. During university, I memorized lines for very short pieces for
classes using JAWS, but the pieces were short enough for me to memorize in a
weekend and come back to class ready to rehearse. I have not been able to
devise a more efficient way to learn lines for a longer script, especially
during the rehearsal process when no one is off book yet. Curious to hear
from others.

Hi All,
I'm curious, what alternative techniques do you use in your performing art?
It can be anything, I'm just curious to know what's out there.  Technology
wise, in terms of mobility, etc.  
Do guide dog users prefer not to take dogs on stage because of what they
might do during a performance? Do you prefer to find things such as
microphones on your own or do you think that it is alright to get sighted
assistance? What alternative techniques did you use for learning a certain
instrument? What apps or software do you use for DJing? Do you use your cane
when acting? 
Got any alternative techniques for teaching or taking vocal lessons.  Share
them here, we're all curious to know what works for you and why.
Hope to hear from you soon,
Lizzy
