1. The audience is not familiar with your script, so you need to establish the setting and characters right away and be very clear about it.
2. Make sure the plot is easy to follow, so the audience does not get confused. Don't overcomplicate your script.
3. Be loud (project) so that the audience can hear you. Speak slowly and enunciate.
4. Be aware of where you are on the stage -- make sure the audience can see you.
5. Don't worry about following a script exactly. You can improvise lines as long as you follow the structure of your outline that your group created.
6. Make the theme of "Fence" clear to the audience.
7. Use a large part of the stage -- don't be confined to one spot.
8. Use movement, blocking, and body language to help tell the story.
9. In the scene, you need to act your part and say your lines, but don't forget to also REACT to others on stage. Don't just stand there like a statue while others are acting their parts.
10. Make sure everyone in the group has a significant role in the skit.
11. Have fun!
