Description
Authors often talk about “voice” in terms of characters, narrators, and individual
writing styles. In theatre, however, voice is the physical manifestation of sound. This
physical manifestation can frighten, comfort, disguise, reveal; it can infuse every word
on a page with life. Exploring the connection between voice on the page and voice on
the stage can yield stronger theatrical choices and, if utilized in the reading process,
can more fully engage even non-theatrical readers of every level.
