The master acting teacher reveals his life, work, and methods in this "truly extraordinary blend of personal memoir and instructional text" (Midwest Book Review).
Unlike other acting manuals, The Actor Uncovered doesn't advocate one single "method" or a particular "truth." As Michael Howard points out, each human being, and thus each actor, is unique. He therefore encourages actors to uncover their own ways of working, using their particular abilities and personality traits.
Howard reflects on his own experiences as an actor, director, and teacher. He explores the craft of acting in a manner that is both intensely personal and universally relatable, inviting readers to engage as though participating in one of his legendary classes.
Going beyond the craft and into human psychology, actors will discover new ways to study and practice, using introspection to uncover revelations about their craft. A valuable resource for actors of all levels, The Actor Uncovered discusses such topics as:
Techniques, styles, and methods in a changing society Relaxation, concentration, and the breath The relationships among actor, director, and writer Using memory Acting on camera versus on stage Obstacles and blockages
