All the speech's a stage...

Fellow speaker,

World Champion Speaker Darren LaCroix suggests there are five directions on stage:
  • Center
  • House left (left from the point of view of the audience, stage right from point of view of speaker)
  • House right
  • Downstage (close to audience)
  • Upstage (away from audience)
And you create interest in your audience by combining these five directions depending on the needs of your speech.
Onstage,

Tim Wilson
