The Actor's Art and Craft: William Esper Teaches the Meisner

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Esper, William / DiMarco, Damon / Mamet, David, PUBLISHER: Anchor Books, William Esper, one of the leading acting teachers of our time, explains and extends Sanford Meisner's legendary technique, offering a clear, concrete, step-by-step approach to becoming a truly creative actor. Esper worked closely with Meisner for seventeen years and has spent decades developing his famous program for actor's training. The result is a rigorous system of exercises that builds a solid foundation of acting skills from the ground up, and that is flexible enough to be applied to any challenge an actor faces, from soap operas to Shakespeare. Co-writer Damon DiMarco, a former student of Esper's, spent over a year observing his mentor teaching first-year acting students. In this book he recreates that experience for us, allowing us to see how the progression of exercises works in practice. "The Actor's Art and Craft" vividly demonstrates that good training does not constrain actors' instincts--it frees them to create characters with truthful and compelling inner lives. Acquista Ora

Foucault and Fiction: The Experience Book

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: O'Leary, Timothy, PUBLISHER: Continuum, Foucault and Fiction develops a unique approach to thinking about the power of literature by drawing upon the often neglected concept of experience in Foucault's work. For Foucault, an 'experience book' is a book which transforms our experience by acting on us in a direct and unsettling way. Timothy O'Leary develops and applies this concept to literary texts. Starting from the premise that works of literature are capable of having a profound effect on their audiences, he suggests a way of understanding how these effects are produced. Offering extended analyses of Irish writers such as Swift, Joyce, Beckett, Friel and Heaney, O'Leary draws on Foucault's concept of experience as well as the work of Dewey, Gadamer, and Deleuze and Guattari. Combining these resources, he proposes a new approach to the ethics of literature. Of interest to readers in both philosophy and literary studies, this book offers new insights into Foucault's mature philosophy and an improved understanding of what it is to read and be affected by a work of fiction.

Thomas Betterton and the Management of Lincoln's Inn Fields,

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Milhous, Judith, PUBLISHER: Southern Illinois University Press, This thoroughly new investigation into the theatre management competition be-tween the Drury Lane and Lincoln's Inn Fields companies revises the established view of Thomas Betterton's manage-ment abilities by documenting the fact that his competition with the Drury Lane company made both an immediate and a permanent change in the course of Brit-ish drama. Judith Milhous's meticulous investiga-tion of an astonishing range of reference which includes unpublished and partial-ly published documents in the Public Record Office of London, The British Library, and the Harvard Theatre Col-lection allows her to present a fresh as-sessment of the chaotic events of the period and of the compe-tence of Thomas Betterton as manager of Lincoln's Inn Fields theatre. The breakaway of Betterton and some of the older actors from Drury Lane in , the flood of new plays at the turn of the century, the rivalry between the new acting company at Lincoln's Inn Fields and Drury Lane, and the result-ing competition for the playgoers' atten-tion spawned an extravaganza of singers, jugglers, animal acts, and double bills. Despite great difficulties, Milhous shows, Betterton was able to bring about an accommodation that permitted the two acting companies to enjoy a period of modest prosperity and to exert a continuing influence on English drama and the organization of theatrical production. This careful study of shifts, devices, and the fortunes of the years of rivalry between acting companies provides stu-dents of English theatre history and dra-ma with invaluable new insights into the practical factors that influenced the history of drama.

He's Still Here: The Biography of Joaquin Phoenix

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Howden, Martin, PUBLISHER: John Blake, The first biography of one of the most complex actors of his generation From his early career as a child star to his Oscar-nominated performance in Walk the Line and subsequent "reinvention," this biography traces the rise of a completely unique actor. Since his Oscar nomination, Joaquin Phoenix has risen to become one of Hollywood's biggest stars. Yet in October , during an interview to promote the critically acclaimed "Two Lovers," Phoenix made the shocking announcement that he was to retire from acting, declining any future film roles in a bid to reinvent himself as a hip hop artist. The resulting documentary, "I'm Still Here," turned out to be one of the most extraordinary and memorable pieces of performance art ever committed to film. Born in , Phoenix was a natural performer from an early age, regularly busking on the streets of New York City with his multitalented siblings. Following in the footsteps of his older brother River, Joaquin decided on a career in acting, and his breakthrough performance alongside Nicole Kidman in "To Die For "confirmed him as the most intriguing actor of his generation. Thirteen years later, Phoenix undertook his most challenging role to date: playing a completely reinvented version of himself in Casey Affleck's "I'm Still Here." Fascinating and compelling, this is the first biography of one of the most complex actors working in film and the full story behind one of the most intriguing films ever to have come out of Hollywood.
