The Actor and the Target by Declan Donnellan


Acting is a reflex, a mechanism for development and survival. . . . It isn't 'second nature, ' it is 'first nature.'--Declan Donnellan

This immensely popular and ever-practical book on acting takes a scalpel to the heart of actors' persistent fears, helping them to release their talent on stage. It is straightforward and unpretentious, with a spirit of artistic and personal freedom.

Declan Donnellan is well known for his work with Cheek by Jowl (including their celebrated all-male As You Like It) and on Tony Kushner's Homebody/Kabul. He is also the founding Director of the Royal Shakespeare Company Academy. Fuenteovejuna, Sweeney Todd, and Angels in America were among his National Theatre productions as Associate Director.
