I am currently preparing for a cold reading audition for a melodrama (Under the Gaslight). I am not really familiar with the genre, and as auditions are the day after tom. ,I don't have time to go to the library and do extensive research. I tried myself with no luck, but does anyone have any good websites describing how to properly act melodrama, and perhaps some of the gestures involved.
