In "The Training of Noh Actors and The Dove", the second volume of his Mask: A Release of Acting Resources, David Griffiths provides a detailed view of the Japanese Noh theatre: historically, philosophically (with an evaluation of Zeami's treatises) and in respect of the rigorous practicalities of Noh training. The latter is given particular authority and insight because of the access Griffiths had to Noh actors in training and performance. Enhanced by the author's illustrations, this volume gives one of the most accessible introductions to Noh that is available in English. Appended to the descriptive and analytic material is a short play, The Dove, written by Griffiths (and subsequently professionally performed), described as "unashamedly" acknowledging its Noh influence. This one-woman piece is a drama with references to its cultural source.

Guitar for Actors

 
Guitar for Actors
Free Download Guitar for Actors by Andy Schneider
English | 2019 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B07V1BXZ9M | 52 pages | PDF | 0.67 Mb
As an actor, you may not need to become a dynamite guitarist, but you will want to have some proficiency, since guitar playing is a great skill for your rйsumй. Or maybe you want to nail that upcoming audition. The aim of this book is to give you that basic proficiency and provide an awareness of the stylistic differences in genres. These stylistic differences provide visual cues to the audience. When working for TV or film, audio is usually overdubbed on the video so musical perfection may not be demanded of the actor. However, the visual cues from the actor are important to a convincing performance.

Actors, Audiences, and Emotions in the Eighteenth Century Communities of Sentiment

 
Actors, Audiences, and Emotions in the Eighteenth Century Communities of Sentiment
Actors, Audiences, and Emotions in the Eighteenth Century: Communities of Sentiment (Palgrave Studies in the History of Emotions) by Glen McGillivray
2023 | ISBN: 3031228987 | English | 241 pages | PDF | 6 MB
This book offers an innovative account of how audiences and actors emotionally interacted in the English theatre during the middle decades of the eighteenth century, a period bookended by two of its stars: David Garrick and Sarah Siddons. Drawing upon recent scholarship on the history of emotions, it uses practice theory to challenge the view that emotional interactions between actors and audiences were governed by empathy. It carefully works through how actors communicated emotions through their voices, faces and gestures, how audiences appraised these performances, and mobilised and regulated their own emotional responses. Crucially, this book reveals how theatre spaces mediated the emotional practices of audiences and actors alike. It examines how their public and frequently political interactions were enabled by these spaces.

Boy Actors in Early Modern England Skill and Stagecraft in the Theatre

 
Boy Actors in Early Modern England Skill and Stagecraft in the Theatre
Harry R. McCarthy, "Boy Actors in Early Modern England: Skill and Stagecraft in the Theatre"
English | ISBN: 1009098950 | 2022 | 320 pages | PDF | 4 MB
Boy Actors in Early Modern England: Skill and Stagecraft in the Theatre provides a new approach to the study of early modern boy actors, offering a historical re-appraisal of these performers' physical skills in order to reassess their wide-reaching contribution to early modern theatrical culture. Ranging across drama performed from the 1580s to the 1630s by all-boy and adult companies alike, the book argues that the exuberant physicality fostered in boy performers across the early modern repertory shaped not only their own performances, but how and why plays were written for them in the first place. Harry R. McCarthy's ground-breaking approach to boy performance draws on detailed analysis of a wide range of plays, thorough interrogation of the cultural contexts in which they were written and performed, and present-day practice-based research, offering a critical reimagining of this important and unique facet of early modern theatrical culture.
