استاد شکسپیر: کلاسی بازیگری در هفت صحنه

Who says only the British can act Shakespeare? In this unique guide, a veteran acting coach shatters that myth with a boldly American approach to the Bard. Written in the form of a play, this volume's "characters" include a master teacher and 16 students grappling with the challenges of acting Shakespeare. Using actual speeches from 32 of Shakespeare's plays, each of the book's six "scenes" offer proven solutions to such acting problems as delivering spoken subtext, using physical actions to orchestrate a speech, creating images within a speech, dividing a speech into measures, and much more. How does a Shakespearean actor achieve both genuine passion and absolute clarity? Written in the form of a play and set in an acting studio, Mastering Shakespeare imagines a veteran acting instructor and sixteen students grappling with the answer to that question and more. Featuring in-depth explorations of speeches from more than thirty of Shakespeare's plays, Scott Kaiser's insightful book presents specific acting challenges and provides practical solutions in a uniquely entertaining format.
