- As a beginning actor I found this very helpful. It gave me some vocabulary to use. It introduced me to a range of acting skills that I would not have thought about in an organized way. I found it very helpful in getting my head around acting, how to act and how for me to think about acting in a sophisticated way.
I vastly enjoyed his style as well. He has a sort of master apprentice relationship with a young actress. Their back and forth not only informs us but entertains us and on occasion delights us. - As an actor, you never stop learning and honing in on your talent. I like to grab books and other tools that can help me when I cannot afford to take a class. I bought this book and within the first few pages, I was impressed with how is was written. I needed the refresher and the author prepares us for the lessons with invoking the use of the readers imagination. I have not yet completed the entire book, but I pick it up and put it down in rotation with other books I am reading. Easy to toss in my purse and go, in case I am killing time. This is worth the purchase and should be included in your collection of acting/ theatre help guides etc.
- This book is written as a play with six different acts, each representing a lesson. It is a dialog between a wanna-be actress and a director. I think it should be essential reading for anyone in any field of the creative arts, first written in 1933 it shines today. I am an MFA-IA student and have recommended it to all my peers.
- This is the audible audio review. It was hard to decipher at times whether the narrator was speaking as the student or the teacher. She did a poor job distinguishing between the two. It might have been better if a man narrated the book for no other reason than to better understand who was speaking when. I will read the book.
- I had to get this for my drama class. I didn't expect to actually like the story. It's a unique book. The storyline is very interesting. Also, I gotta add that this book feels so good. It has this velvety film over it. I couldn't stop gliding my hand over it. It may sound weird, but you'll see what I'm talking about if you buy the book.
- Great book. My acting teacher, Kenneth John McGregor, told his students to buy it. He told us how Harvey Kitel would buy this book for everyone in his movie sets. He called it inspiring. I argee.
- Charming book. Written in the form of a play. I enjoyed watching " the creature " mature through the years and the lessons. A delightful read.
- I first read this book when I was seventeen. Now, my age is more than seventy - and the words are still fresh and true.
The additional material is illuminating. This is a must for an actor of any age. With Harold Clurman's book on acting, and William Ball's book about directing, this is a book I read over and over.
