The Table Read

One big key point that the author of this article says is to make sure that you have a comfortable environment for your actors. If your actors feel comfortable, then they'll have a better time reading the script. Another thing to remember is to take breaks during the table read. Taking a break in the middle of a read is required because it allows the actors to breath and understand their characters while the writer gets to take more notes about how to change future revisions of the script. Lastly, it's important to thank everyone after the read. By sending off actors in a good mood, it hopefully keeps them in a good mood during the rest of the production. By keeping all of these aspects in mind, table reads will be a fun and easy thing for everyone involved.
