Sinopsis
Adrian Cairns, an actor and director himself, has taught several generations of actors at the Bristol Old Vic Theatre School. Jeremy Irons and Daniel Day-Lewis were two of his students. He provides a stimulating analysis of acting styles and training used on the Elizabethan stage, Restoration and 18th-century developments, Victorian acting "in the grand manner", and 20th-century initiatives in Russia, Europe, England, and the U.S. (the French avant-garde, the German twenties, the "turbulent thirties"), the European gurus, and American actors. Cairns concludes with chapters on modern drama and the use of Controlled Environments, Virtual Reality, and Found Spaces. He predicts that ritual and a Renaissance of the Mysterious might be the most likely direction in the evolution of playacting.

Hard Cover. Condición: Very Good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very Good. First Edition. Dustwrapper price clipped. Green cloth with bright gilt lettering to spine. Foreword by Jeremy Irons. 285pp clean and tight. The Making of the Professional Actor is the most thorough and accessible study of the evolution of the art of acting, not only charting its history from medieval times, but also analysing contemporary acting styles and offering predictions about the future. Adrian Cairns, an actor and director himself, provides a lively narrative and thought-provoking analysis of the actor's work and training. He summarizes the performer's historical context, looking in turn at Elizabethan, Restoration, eighteenth- and nineteenth-century conventions, and gives a detailed consideration of initiatives taken, in the twentieth century by many leading theatrical figures, among them Copeau, Stanislayski, Piscator and Brecht, Artaud, Barrault, Saint-Denis, Brook, Grotowski, Strehler, Stein and Mnouchkine. As well as extensive coverage of the contemporary theatre scene and actor training in Britain, the text includes an up-to-date commentary on conditions in the rest of Europe and the USA. Students and those who teach them have long needed a concise survey of how acting has evolved. Here they are offered much more: a wide-ranging assessment of the place, function and importance of acting in the 199os and well beyond, which will be of interest to all in the profession. Already actors are involved in the use of environmental and ritual theatre, interactive virtual reality and'cyberspace technology, and both they and their public need to speculate on the effect these developments will have on the more traditional theatrical, film and television experiences. With a Foreword by Jeremy Irons Size: 8vo. Nº de ref. del artículo: 140756
