Description
The development of acting has a lively history. Professor Cleberg blends this history with practical application as he provides thirty-eight observations that arose while he was preparing his role for a production of Lauren Gunderson’s play, The Book of Will. Citing many traditional acting techniques and devices, Cleberg provides insights about how an emerging actor can “learn the rules in order to learn how to break the rules.” Through specific examples, the author demonstrates how breaking traditions inspires new discoveries.
