This practical guide to the play rehearsal process is "a must read for actors and directors" (Kurt Beattie, Artistic Director, ACT Theatre).With a commonsense approach, An Actor Rehearses takes stage performers through each phase of rehearsal, from initial preparation to opening night. The actor's process is examined in simple, straightforward terms that explain what to do when and the purpose of each step. Actors will learn how to approach their roles starting from the period before rehearsals begin and continuing through first read-through, blocking, technical rehearsals, and performances. Packed with useful exercises, An Actor Rehearses helps actors of all levels discover their characters and build compelling performances. Veteran acting teacher David Hlavsa also offers insight into how acting relates to life. As he explains, becoming a better actor will also make you a better person: more compassionate, vital, and alive.
