Oral Interpretation is a performing art form that can be engaged in by just about anyone, just about anywhere. As a theatre artist, the author of this text understands well that Oral Interpretation is a Performance Art. In this approach, creativity and discovery are the key factors in the preparation and rehearsal process, unlike other approaches that emphasize literary analysis. In the author's words "Oral Interpretation should be fun. If it's not fun then you are probably doing something wrong." Oral Interpretation Creating Performance is a comprehensive guide for individual or group performances. Teachers, youth leaders, geriatric activity providers, community theater groups, and individuals who want to take advantage of local performance opportunities are just some of those for whom this text was written.
