Its interesting to think about this. During my undergraduate studies, I dual majored in Computer Science and Theater (to offset the pure science of CS). One of the first aspects of performance is obviously "learning your lines". Its seems obvious, but one of the ways actors do this is by simply verbalizing the script. Although it doesn't help with deeper understanding of the literature, it also allowed the speaker to personalize the words and understand the how and why the character was saying what they were saying.
It would be even more interesting to see this expanded. In terms of performance, the next element suggested to improve script memorization suggested to me was to read the script aloud while walking around. Does the walking around aspect build from applying environmental context (actors typically recite lines while moving) or is it engaging physical aspects of the body (learning while "exercises")?
