It is proved that professional training of culturologists as participants of high communicative culture will be more effective and efficient if they master the main tool of their professional activity – the art of stage speech, which is considered to be an exemplary speech, the highest level of professionalism of speakers, actors, directors, teachers, journalists, culturists, organizers of cultural and artistic projects and other.
