Memorize Lines Rehearsal App for Actors

ActorCue was built to solve one problem clearly: how do actors rehearse and self-tape effectively when no one else is available to read opposite them?

The Problem ActorCue Was Built to Solve

Every actor needs a reader. Traditional audition rooms have one. Self-tape situations often don't. And between callbacks, workshops, and last-minute bookings, finding a reliable human reader at the right time is harder than it should be.

ActorCue eliminates the dependency. It reads opposite you using text-to-speech or your own imported audio recordings, and it responds to your voice — so you get the back-and-forth of real scene work without needing anyone else in the room.

How Actors Use ActorCue

Three Rehearsal Modes, One App

ActorCue offers Cue Mode (instant triggered lines), Performance Mode (full director-style scene run), and Tap Mode (manual advance for flexible pacing). Whether you're drilling a single exchange or running a full two-person scene, there's a mode designed for that moment in rehearsal.

About ActorCue

ActorCue is an iPhone app built for actors who need to rehearse and self-tape without a scene partner. You enter your scene's dialogue, assign reader and actor lines, and let ActorCue handle the rest. The app reads the reader lines aloud and listens for your cue words using on-device speech recognition — no internet connection required.

Cue Mode

Speak your cue word and ActorCue instantly reads the next reader line. Perfect for drilling individual exchanges fast.

Performance Mode

Say "call action" to begin a full director-style scene run. Lines play and advance automatically as you speak.

Tap Mode

No voice required. Tap to advance lines at your own pace — great for quiet environments or complex scenes.

Audio Import

Import MP3, WAV, M4A, or AAC recordings as reader lines. ActorCue transcribes and syncs them automatically.
