An Actor Prepares 1st Edition

I got to this book through my voice coach, who insisted I should read it. I had heard about Stanislavsky's technique before several times at music school and actors workshop, but I put it off as I was afraid it could be too technical. However, this book is an eye-opener, easy to follow, and the narrator's experience during his acting lessons and what he learned are very relatable as well.

"An Actor Prepares" by Konstantin Stanislavski is a masterpiece that continues to shape the world of acting and theater. It is an indispensable resource for anyone interested in the art of performance, offering a rich blend of theory, practical exercises, and profound insights into the human psyche. Whether you're an aspiring actor, a theater enthusiast, or simply curious about the craft of acting, this book is a must-read that will forever change the way you perceive and appreciate the art of the stage.

while learning the craft of acting. This is a must read. I also recommend The first 6 lessons

This book is an essential reference for anyone interested in understanding in depth acting techniques. Written as a story rather than a manual is makes it more pleasurable to read in that sense for people interested in the craft. However for someone looking for a fun read, this book might still see way too technical and delves into too much detail that may disinterest the casual reader

This hardback copy of a great and classic book arrived fast and in wonderful condition. Thanks!

I found this a very interesting read. It gives the reader the experience of being in an actual acting class. After a while you really feel you are part of the class. It wakes you up to certain realities and introduces you to some very useful techniques and principles. I recommend this book for any person who wants to be an actor.

Constantin Stanislavski is THE instructor for training the actor. This volume is one part of a three part set on training the actor. It is present in a very easy to follow format ,, it's as though one is reading a story. Highly recommended for any student of the theatre.

We utilized this book in my methods of Stanislavski class, and matched with the material my instructor selected, it was very beneficial in furthering my acting techniques. A little obscure at times, but overall very effective in demonstrating the different aspects of Stanislavski's teachings.

Kostantin Stanislavsvky is ILLUMINATING. He knows ALL of the natural acting, its elementS, and its problems.After all, he is the father of modern acting

The book is a gem. No doubts.But the thing I was amused was the packing of the product which was more than perfect.A gem is valuable if it reaches the readers in its original condition and the seller has taken 100% care of that.I wish other sellers like Cocoblue retail who see books as a grocery item take notes from them.Content 5🌟Book Condition 5🌟packing 5🌟Seller 10🌟

I'm studying an MA in acting and this book (bible) is just great. Actor in training or professionals should have this...

Great book to learn from over and over again.

Awesome
