Advice to the Players

by Robert Lewis

Since founding the Actors Studio with Elia Kazan and Cheryl Crawford in 1947, Robert Lewis has earned a reputation as one of America’s leading teachers of acting. In Advice to the Players, Lewis presents a clear program of study for the actor, with detailed exercises to strengthen technique. He calls on his vast range of experience to illuminate common problems and suggest ways to solve them. The areas covered include: relaxation, bodywork, concentration, imagination, sensory perception, improvisation and emotion. Lewis’s practicality and wisdom, and his genius for delineating—simply and straightforwardly—the vital elements of the actor’s craft, make this book an invaluable tool for the actor and also the theatre enthusiast.

“The best theatre book I have read this year. Actors and watchers of actors will find it a book to mark up and read again.” — Dan Sullivan, Los Angeles Times
