Acting Characters by Paul Elsam
"Clear and helpful pathways to guide the student actor" Alan Ayckbourn "The sort of information you would only get in a professionally run workshop, in a clear, easy form. Clear presentation of the key concepts of Stanislavski. A real delight" uktheatreweb "Very valuable prepatation for the rigours of drama school training" British Theatre Guide Acting Characters is a simple, no-nonsense guide to researching, planning and performing more truthful and realistic characters. It describes 16 easily followed steps designed to simplify Stanislavski's teachings, with practical exercises to follow. The book considers key elements of communication and the characteristics of human behaviour, and shows how you can harness these behaviour types to sharpen skills and awareness through the use of body, voice and speech. A Character Profile Sheet helps you plan your character as you build up your research. Boxed sections introduce new theories and concepts at a clear, introductory level.
'a book that should be read by every drama school graduate and every young ASM in every regional theatre and, indeed, all of those who would wish to be better actors, both amateur and professional..this book should be mandatory reading for every student and, ideally, a set textbook for those who want to take acting seriously.' Amateur Stage (April 2006)
