About
the Book:
Of all the subjects taught in the school system, dramatic arts
probably has the greatest potential to help students prepare for
life.
The study of acting helps students develop personal and social
skills: increased poise and confidence, better awareness of their
physical and vocal selves, and an improved ability to think and react
quickly. These talents can help in dealing with sometimes difficult
real life situations.
The intention of Acting Skills for Life is to integrate
personal growth and the process of creative drama with the more
formal skills required for stage production.
This is a very practical textbook on acting technique, full of
suggestions for drama exercises and improvisations, developed by Ron
Cameron over more than thirty years of teaching college
drama, and includes helpful information for teachers working with
students on stage productions.
What people say:
"An encyclopedic instruction
manual of methodology for student actors – invaluable." —
