This paper describes ongoing research focused on natural language understanding and visualization of actors and actions extracted from narrative text. The technique employs a natural language processing pipeline for sophisticated syntactic and semantic analysis of text, and extracts information about events, actors and their roles in events, as well as temporal ordering of the events and spatial roles. This kind of information is traditionally considered indicative for text comprehension skill tests with novel readers. The visualization is implemented in the 3D graphics prototyping environment Alice, which provides a set of visual primitives and instructions for interactions and spatial manipulations of primitives.
