Best acting book?
Hello everyone,
I was wondering, what is the best acting book that everyone has read? I personally havent read any, so I was wondering if they are worth while? Thanks Last edited by Blarian; 07-17-2005 at 11:40 PM.. |

Re: Best acting book?
I would recommend the following:
Stella Adler The Art of Acting Edward Dwight Easty On Method Acting Judy Kerr Acting is Everything Those should get you started and give you some theory/knowledge behind acting. It's important to not get too deep into theory without practicing (being involved in a class etc.) |

Re: Best acting book?
I've never acted...but I used to know absolutely nothing about working on cars and then I read Automotive Repair for dummies and by the end of the night, I was changing spark plugs, changing oil, and troubleshooting problems. So, whenever I want to learn something new, I go to the dummies books.
Breaking Into Acting for Dummies is the title, I believe...

Acting: the first 6 lessons by Stanislavsky
I got the book while I was in theatre acting. Robert De Niro recommends it. |
