    About the Book


    This pioneering introduction to Stanislavsky's methods and modes of actor training
    covers all of the essential elements of his System. Recreating ‘truthful’ behaviour in
    the artificial environment, awareness and observation, psychophysical work, given
    circumstances, visualization and imagination, and active analysis are all introduced
    and explored.

    Each section of the book is accompanied by individual and group exercises, forming a full course of study
    in the foundations of modern acting.

    A glossary explains the key terms and concepts that are central to Stanislavsky’s thinking at a glance.

    The book’s companion website is full of downloadable worksheets and resources for teachers and
    students.

    Experiencing Stanislavsky Today is enhanced by contemporary findings in psychology, neuroscience,


    anatomy and physiology that illuminate the human processes important to actors, such as voice and
    speech, creativity, mind-body connection, the process and the production of emotions on cue. It is
    the definitive first step for anyone encountering Stanislavsky’s work, from acting students exploring
    his methods for the first time, to directors looking for effective rehearsal tools and teachers mapping
    out degree classes.
