I read about actors who didn't stutter on stage only because their characters didn't stutter. And being off stage they began to stutter again :)...

It's pretty common. When you impersonate, do an accent or sing it uses a different part of your brain apparently and sometimes that bypasses what makes you stutter....

I like theatre in high school and I have a pretty bad stutter with blocks and repetitions and a lot of umm and likes but I just got in my first audition in which I did stutter but not severely and sta...

I don’t stutter as much when I talk in an accent

I don’t stutter as much when I talk in an accent I’m an international student in the US, and find that when I’m taking to people in my more American accent, I don’t stutter as much as my original acce...

A very slight American accent does me fine (im british). And yeah when I sing or perform my stutter competely disappears. Not sure why but its easier to out on an accent than to sing thats for sure!...

I'm sorry, I am seriously laughing at the idea of an Asian dude speaking in a bad Irish accent. But yeah, I randomly slip into accents all the time - and I never stutter while doing so!...

I do the same thing. Or just get into a character that helps too. The psychology of stuttering is so weird. Makes 0 sense!...

Found out I have more fluency when I adopt an accent, now it's become a part of my speech Here's a lighthearted one for you today. It started with me practicing an Irish accent with friends while ha...

I think any kind of singing is good for breath control, onset, etc. (and people will enjoy when you spontaneously bust out with Straight Outta Compton)...

While singing (different usage of our mouth, tongue, etc.) is shown to improve fluency, I would imagine rapping would be similar. I would imagine you would be more fluent while doing that....

I use a very slightly different accent (not enough to be noticed really) and literally pretend im someone else when I have to do public speaking, when im in character acting as someone I dont stutter....

In "One flew over the cuckoo's nest" The only time when Billy doesn't stutter is when he is confident. He starts stuttering again when he's asked about what's his mother going to think about what he's...

You have developed an expectancy to stutter in the one language. I bet you feel stuttering coming in your body. Have you started avoiding etc in the one language? If so, that will feed it. It is ...

I am in a theater department, and have been for a long time. However that tends to be mixed on who stands up for me or not. Many are very protective of me while others see everybody else as competitio...

True that! Back in my senior year of high school we had to read a lot of plays during class and I was “cast” for one of the biggest roles of act 1 in Hamlet (The King) and I had to spin an old man acc...

Yeah, one entire video was dedicated to that fact that he could say “Banana” and he blocked plenty but I understand if you think he’s acting it’s happened before...

I believe that he is acting. Have you heard him block? Once?...

Imitate an accent, get a new personality. This helped me a lot with English although right now I'm struggling with French....

I noticed right away. My dad has a stutter and is very sensitive to it. Rick never stutters when he's acting, though. Only in conversations he's not in control of....
