To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
We used to have to say it very, very slowly, until gradu- ally in the course of a week or so, we were allowed to run it off as fast as we could. The exercise, of course, you all know, but I have just repeated the first few lines so you will under- stand what I mean by this example. Another study which is so necessary, is the study of vocal culture, and people entering our profession today seem to have forgotten that it exists at all — that it is absolutely a necessity. When I was rescued by my ...parents from my rovings with the "fit-up" company, I was placed in the school of Carlotta Leclerco's. She was then a power in England — consulted by Irving and many other prominent managers in London, during their rehearsals of big productions. She used to steal me into rehearsals with her, and hide me at the back of the stalls, and once I asked her why Miss Terry spoke so slowly and pedantically at the rehearsals, and she said to me, "She is getting her voice placed, and is SPACING. " She said this was Miss Terry's method, and was a very wonderful one, and that if I would study her, and work as she did, that in years I might be able to speak like her.
