Maybe give some free advice about: Theater?
I record all of the lines in between my lines and leave space for me to say my lines like I'm actually doing the dialouge with someone else.

Believe me, I have had to deal with this. A person will learn their lines best depending on what kind of a learner they are. I find it best to learn a small section at a time and say that section along with the next section. If it's a play, learn every act individually. It also is a good thing if you at least know where your cues end (or what the other person is talking about before your line.) It's hard work, but it's worth it. Hope I helped!

It's different for everyone, but generaly speaking reading them over and over isn't the best way. Obviously, you need to read them, but try to go through your planned movements at the same time. Also, try speaking them aloud. I think they call it physical memory or something, but in short, words that are associated with very well rehearsed actions (even if the action is only your mouth) are easier to remember. Obviously, this will make you look a bit strange on the bus etc, so in these situations, just visualise yourself going through the motions.
Hope that helps.

Singing the poem in the shower at the top of my lungs. ha ha.....it worked and it was fun too

just like learn one section at a time. like first learn five or so lines..well the number may vary depending on the length of the lines you have to memorize..then learn the next section ;; and so on. it really works for me! i hope i helped! ♥ katie

I've been doing theatre for about four years....
Get a connection with what it is you're saying. Understand your character, understand the plot, and empathize with the things your character is saying and the actions your character is taking. When you feel truly one with the role you're portraying, rehearse to death. Repeat your lines until you hate them. Try them in different styles, with different intentions and inflections in your voice. It's a good way to remember them...

read each line for about 5 lines. then each paragraph or whatever and repeat 2-3 times and then repeat the whole play for 2 times and look up once in a while and recite it and see if you can do it. if you need help practice that area again

Make up a song, to the tune of a common song, like Mary had a little lamb, or row row row your boat. Thats what we did in Spanish a few years back to the tune of row row row your boat to help us learn verbs. 'yo soy, tu eres, el y ella es, nosotros somos, vosotros sois, ellos y ellas son'. xD

you could try like making a little song or something like that.

it helps to first become very familiar with the whole story line. The more you know about what's going on, the easier it will be to recall your lines.
If you can, record a read-through of the play and then listen to it over and over again. You'll get sick of it, but it'll stick. It's like when you listen to your favorite CD over and over, you know what song comes next before the first song is over.
And should you forget your lines on stage, don't freeze up. It happens to everyone. Just ad-lib, try to paraphrase the line you were trying to say...eventually, you and your partner will get back on track ( or just you, if it's a monloauge). Believe me, it might feel like you spent 30 minuts on stage dumbfounded and it was obvious, but the audience won't know a thing.

well, seeing as though I love theater and I've been in many shows. My best method is to read a certain group of lines about 5 times. Then I look up (away from my script) and I recite those lines. If I have problems then I read those lines over and over again and recite them until i get it right. Hope this helps!

Well learn chunks at times,
or do body motions at first to remember the words.
I usually go in my room and shut the door,
and repeat them over and over, and then I memorize them :)
haha,
hope i helped.
