Abstract
Learning lines from long texts is a major challenge for actors. The effectiveness of a novel learning method in the memorization of texts from a play, based on a combination of embodied acting and testing practice, called hidden text strategy, was investigated experimentally. The results showed a strong positive effect of this learning strategy
compared to a conventional study-restudy condition.
