Description:


The classic book on acting, in an attractive updated edition

Since its original publication in 1973, Uta Hagen's Respect for Acting has remained a durable classic and a must-read for all students of acting. As an acting instructor at the Herbert Berghof Studio, Hagen helped to develop the talents of world-class actors like Robert DeNiro, Matthew Broderick, Gene Wilder, Amanda Peet, Austin Pendleton, Whoopi Goldberg, and more. In this book, Hagen offers an indispensable account of the techniques that professionals use to elevate their acting to an art form. This updated edition illuminates Hagen's original text with a new foreword written by Katie Finneran, retaining the David Hyde Pierce foreword, along with added background on HB Studio—one of the original New York performing arts training and practice spaces—and an excerpt from Hagen's autobiography SOURCES.

In working through this book, actors will learn physical, verbal, and emotional practice that empower them to connect their own self-concept to the characters they play. Specific, detailed exercises help actors learn to address a range of problems actors face, like maintaining immediacy and relevance, and developing the dimensions of a role over a long performance run. Respect for Acting is a book for actors and audiences who understand the need for truth in the creative process.

great informational book
Format: Paperback
I had to buy this book for a graduate-level statistics course. I thought it was kinda silly at first, but it has been a great tool. It has beautiful graphics with fantastic step-by-step instructions and explanations on the whats and whys of tables and figures. I've made some great infographics with the help of this book. Highly recommend for anyone who ever has to present data in some form of fashion.

This book is a great resource. I need to manipulate data for work and present results in PowerPoint and didn’t have much experience. I’ve found this book very straightforward and well organized.
