Training of the American Actor
by Arthur Bartow
The first comprehensive survey and study
of the major techniques developed by and for the American actor over
the past 60 years. Presented side-by-side, each of the 10 disciplines
included is described in detail by one of today’s foremost practitioners.
An invaluable resource both for the young actor embarking on a career
and for the theatre professional polishing his or her craft.
“Successful acting must reflect a
society’s current beliefs. The men and women who developed each new
technique were convinced that previous methods were not equal to the
full challenges of their time and place, and the techniques in this
book have been adapted to current needs in order to continue to be successful
methods for training actors. The actor’s journey is an individual
one, and the actor seeks a form, or a variety of forms, of training
that will assist in unlocking his own creative gifts of expression.”
