Sight Reading
for Actors and
Non Actors

Performing
Beckett

Sight reading is a crucial skill for actors
who attends auditions, performs
poetry or play readings on stage or
radio, and for anyone who needs to
read aloud in a public setting. It is a
skill that can be learned and improved.
Rosie is an actor who has read
professionally novels by Margaret
Atwood and Bernard McLaverty on BBC
radio and has performed readings from
Dickens as part of the Dickens 2012
project. She has led ‘Sight Reading For
Writers’ workshops as part of the
Belfast Book Festival. Rosie will provide
material, tips and techniques that will
develop your sight reading ability.
