From the publisher
From the jacket flap
Few acting books can claim to be as widely read and sought after as Uta Hagen's Respect For Acting. Since the publication of the original edition in 1973, hundreds of thousands of practicing and aspiring actors have benefited from its timeless and practical wisdom.
The Expanded Edition of Respect For Acting includes a new Foreword by renowned actor and former student of Uta Hagen, Katie Finneran, and additional background on HB Studio in New York City--one of the original New York performing arts academies, and the artistic home where Hagen developed her training methods.
In the book, actors will discover the physical, verbal, and emotional techniques that enable them to connect their own self-concept to the characters they play. Hagen's approach helps actors learn to solve many of the most common problems they face, like maintaining energy levels during long performances. From -discussions of emotional and sense memory to explicit instructions on how to think, walk, talk, and improvise, the author has laid out a comprehensive guide to the art of fine acting.
A timeless and essential presentation of acting as an art, Respect For Acting has earned a prominent place in the libraries of some of the world's finest players and in the classrooms and studios wherever actors are trained.
