All about Method Acting

This is the first and only guide for actors that brings together the most well-known techniques of Method Acting. Besides basic Method Acting techniques, it includes refinements which were developed in the Ned Manderino Workshop during its beginning months. These were the first basic Method Exercises to go beyond traditional Method Acting and include: A specific and inventive Characterisation Exercise; Stimuli Exercise (which has demonstrated its effectiveness beyond basic Method sensory technique); The Wandering Personal Object (which has proved itself to give more physicalisation to an actor's behaviour than the propounded use of temperature sensations). Also included are a long discussion of Method Acting details that are involved in creating a role and the most extensive list available of Actions and Method Acting Choices.
