Stanislavski in Practice: Exercises for Students (Nick 'O'Brien)

Availability: In stock.

£24.99

Quick Overview

If you've been teaching Stanislavski for years and sometimes feel like your delivery of his ideas need refreshing and bringing to life again then this is definitely the book for you. It's also the perfect book if you are thinking of issuing your students with a Stanislavski reference book. Easy to follow, this book brings Stanislavski well and truly in to the twenty first century by suggesting ways in which his exercises could be used within the drama classroom for students and teacher today. If you think you've read all there is to read on Stanislavski you'll be surprised by this book. You'll soon be teaching the theatre great using updated, fresh approaches.


Nick O'Brien asks that you approach the exercsises in this book as Stanislavski himself would have intended, by "Acting, by its nature is all about 'doing' and to understand how to act you must be prepared to 'do'. All the exercises and improvisations in this book are designed with this in mind - to be practised and experienced. If simply read, these exercises will often not be understood, because your understanding will come with practice. So I ask that you read each exercise, and then you 'give it a go'. This is the perfect book to encourage your students to get up and put Stanislavski's methods in to practice. Their understanding of the practitioner will improve vastly.


Features include:

*Practical extension work for students to take away from the lesson
*Notes for teachers on how to use material with different age groups
*Exam tips for students based on specific syllabi requirements
*A chapter dedicated to using Stanislavski when rehearsing a text
*A glossary of terms that students of the System will encounter
