LIGHTHOUSE TECHNIQUE
Sweep the audience with your eyes, staying only
2-3 seconds on each person - unless in dialogue.
This will give each participant the impression
that you are speaking to him/her personally and
ensure attention, in the same way as the
lighthouse keeps you awake by its regular
sweeping flash of light. Above all, avoid looking
at one (friendly-looking) member of the audience
or at a fixed (non-threatening) point on the wall
or floor.
