Different characters may be established but are not required. Adaptations may be made for the purpose of continuity only. A reasonable balance of eye contact must be maintained between the audience and the manuscript. While singing is permitted, it should not be excessive or dominate the performance. The contestant must remain standing and may not kneel or sit on the floor.
