- Synopsis
- It is vital for actors to understand how their craft evolved and in what tradition they stand. A global understanding of the past and present orients one better towards the future. It is important to know that realism in acting came as a reaction to the falseness that had gone before. Knowing this, one can anticipate that realism too will be overthrown in its turn. For example, in many private studios and at universities today, body training and mask work is in the ascendancy. Making one's way through the maze of actor training is a daunting task. This book is designed to help you understand the most important ideas about acting, where they came from, and how they are used in training programs today. With this knowledge, you will be prepared to make wise choices about your own path through this rewarding, frustrating, astonishing art.
