Every time when we listen to a speech, we will always harbour a thought deep in us: Does he/she mean what he/she is saying? Does the speaker need to believe in what he/she is saying in order to move an audience, or is it a language game?
Taking these questions to class, lecturers Richard Chua and Sina Azinfar challenged the January 2012 class of the public speaking module to the above test. How do they weave the personal, lay out the truth, convincingly convey the real thing to audiences who harbour their own biasness?
Perhaps a safe environment is what a speaker needs, to allay fears, to pretend to be someone; theatre is that safe space to carry out the experiment. We invite you to come join these students in making the discovery together.
