Description
Acting: The Active Process is not a text about theory only, but a hands-on, classroom-friendly, doable process.
It forces actors to ask the right questions: What do I want?
What's in my way? What tactic do I select to get what I want? Where does the scene start/end and how did it get there.
All of these principles are centered in the author's major advice: "Acting is about one character trying to get another character to do something."Organized into six chapters, Acting: The Active Process:uses a precise approach to understanding each principal in every chapterprovides classroom warm-ups relating to the chapter's main ideaprepares students with exercises in connecting the chapter's principle to a written sceneHowever, the learning doesn't end after the six chapters.
