Basics of Acting
Each acting study program begins with the
basics, in which the fundamentals of staged
drama are taught. Initially without text, it
focuses primarily on improvisation training as
well as on the perception of oneself and others,
communication skills, finding one's position
in the ensemble, the use of one's fantasy,
dealing with spaces and props, etc.
This book conveys the methodology of Brecht
and Stanislawski taught at the state acting
schools in Germany and the methods of the
world-famous Canadian theater dramaturg
Keith Johnstone. It is aimed at acting students
who want to review what they have
learned and try it out for themselves, as well
as at lecturers who are looking for inspiration,
both in professional and amateur acting
classes.
• the essentials for aspiring actors and
lecturers
• according to the methodology of
Brecht, Stanislawski and Keith Johnstone
• with numerous exercises and valuable
practical tips
