Community Theater Green Room Discussion Board: What is a principle?

Message

   Simple rules of thumb for definition purposes:
If you read the script and say "I'll never remember all these #$%&@ lines!"  It's a LEAD.
If you read the script and say "I've got some great #$%&@ lines to say!"  It's FEATURED.
If you read the script and say "#$%&@!  Are these the only lines I've got?"  It's SUPPORTING.
If you're not given a script and told to STAND in a line, it's CHORUS.

	Topper, that is the best definition of those terms that I've ever seen! Funny, but also quite accurate!
