A Note About the YouTube Posts

While the summaries of plot and character may be useful to you as a quick preview or review of the play, the real reason I want you to see these is because of the quality of the presentation. The young woman presenting the synopses does an excellent job. She is personable and engaging to watch. Note the changing inflection and use of emphasis in her tone. More importantly, she maintains direct contact with her audience through the medium of the camera lens. If you want a model of how you should speak and present yourself when you deliver your oral presentation, this is an excellent model. Naturally, your style will reflect your personality, but this is a good example of poise and skill.
