Knight’s clear writing and the accompanying audio files make for an engaging independent learning experience … I fully expect that Dudley Knight’s excellent new book will become the dominant text in the speech classes of American acting conservatories in the years to come. Though the book challenges conservative traditions in actor training, the skills readers/students acquire through its processes are invaluable and essential. * Voice and Speech Review *
