1: Can't go wrong with this book
Actors never stop learning, this is just one of many that needs to be in a student of acting library
|
2: The best lessons ever laid out!
This is one of the most intelligent, clearly laid out acting books on the market!
|
3: Very Dry
I had to read this for acting class. Author has a stuck-up, snooty know it all tone. Paragraphs are very long & wordy, not friendly to the reader at all. While this book has good information, the presentation of the material is downright awful. Aside from the good techniques presented, I would say that it is a very difficult read, quite possibly the worst book ever written. Follow-up should be "The Guide to being a feminist snob."

4: Great--but skip and read "A Challenge for the Actor"
This book is great, don't get me wrong. But her later book, "A Challenge for the Actor" takes everything of value in this book, elaborates on it, and adds oodles more information and insight (reflecting the author's own revising of her approach and methods over the years). Reading both isn't necessary; I would head straight for "...Challenge..."

5: Waited too long!!
The book took longer than the specified time to arrive. I requested information about shipping a few weeks after ordering but never received a reply. Eventually the book arrived wrapped in plain copy paper and tape almost a month after ordering. Another vendor may be the best choice!
