The Mind Palace also known as the Memory Palace or Method of Loci has been around for at least 2500 years and it is no surprise that famous people throughout history have used it.
Shakespeare actually used this memory training technique in the Globe theatre to teach his actors how to memorize lines. It is a simple yet extremely effective technique to memorize lines.
The concept of this memory training technique is that you select places in your room to be locations where you mental store data. The first step is to turn the lines that you want to memorize into pictures and then visualize these images around the rooms in your mind.
You could use rooms in your home or use the actual theatre where you will be reciting the lines as Shakespeare’s actors did. Either way is extremely effective. The more vivid, unusual and creative the images are the more likely that you will recall them.
This method is more effective than rote memorization of simply saying the lines over and over until they stick in your brain.
You can get more info on how to memorize lines here: www.wikihow.com/Memorize-Lines
Read through your script once to get a feel for the text and then go back and turn the key words into pictures and visualize them in your Mind Palace. Remember it is not necessary to turn every word into pictures just the main ideas of each line or thought.

    I sort of did this, except I used my stuffed animal collection to remember each line, to memorize a Shakespearean monologue. I lost it, though, when I found myself telling a stuffed elf, that he is "a thousand times a properer man, than she a woman" (As you Like It, Act 3,Scene 5). But at least I will never forget that line😂

    Does this method work for long passages. During Masonic ritual we sometimes have to recite verbatim, long passages, sometimes several large paragraphs .

    In Shakespeare's time they often had just a few hours to learn a ton of text. The also kept the "roles" of the line in their custumes in case they had to look. That's why we get a "role" when we are cast in a play.
