Acting: A Drama Studio Source Book is an invaluable handbook for drama teachers and students for use in the experimental atmosphere of the studio. It describes the basic elements that contribute to a sound technique and illustrates them with a wide range of ideas for informal practice by groups. All the suggestions and examples can be freely adapted to suit different levels of ability and different circumstances. Subjects covered include: relaxation; posture; breathing and voice; warming-up exercises; acting without dialogue; improvisation; imagination and dramatic truth. There is also a section suggesting scenes suitable for rehearsal. The book should prove invaluable to a wide range of students — from secondary and higher education as well as drama schools — and to the dedicated amateur.
