Drama teachers, frequently ask, \"How can I get my students to speak up, to be clear, to articulate?\"   Voice and the Young Actor is written for the school actor, is inviting in format, language and illustration and offers clear and inspiring instructions. The accompanying video content features 85 mins and 28 filmed voice workshop exercises with the author and two students. These students log their reflections in the book on what they have learned throughout their training and there is space for the reader to do the same.   A workbook in format, Voice and the Young Actor provides simple, interactive vocal exercises and shows young performers how to take voice work into acting.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49870116028689,"sku":"GOR005844486","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ GARDNERS","offer_id":50697432400145,"sku":"NGR9781408154601","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50781208412433,"sku":"GOR014070232","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":51416949162257,"sku":"CIN1408154609G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ NEW \/ INGRAM","offer_id":52613959713041,"sku":"NLS9781408154601","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/1408154609.jpg?v=1751466997"},{"product_id":"empower-your-voice-book-rena-cook-9781633020863","title":"Empower your Voice","description":"\u003cp\u003eEmpower your Voice: For Women in Business, Politics and Life is written for the woman who wants to change the way she communicates with her voice and body.
