Many actors are hungry for guidance. You're in a profession that offers no promise of recognition, fulfillment or even steady employment despite your talent, training or degrees. A great actor can be passed over for a lesser one; a year of booking wonderful roles can be followed by two years of unemployment; a successful actor can find him or herself spiritually empty in the midst of adulation. Performers must deal with the unique circumstance of having their face, body, mind and emotions on display for judgment every day. Consequently, there's an overwhelming desire to obtain some emotional grounding and inner peace within a very uncertain profession. The Present Actor was written specifically to address the challenges that you face every day, whether you're just starting out or have already acquired some measure of success. This book speaks specifically to the performer on an all-encompassing emotional, spiritual and practical level. As a casting executive for a major television network, understanding an actor's ego, heart, intellect and imagination is my job. Finding your way requires time, patience and love. I can't reach all of you personally, but I can hope to make my knowledge available to you through this book.“I was truly moved by what Marci wrote. I kept on saying, 'yes, yes, yes', I discuss these ideas with my clients all the time! It's more than taking class and breaking down a scene.. She captures the sum of the parts in such a comprehensive manner yet with so much compassion. It's the actor's self-help book for anyone who dares to dream. I LOVE it!”Rhonda Price, Partner - The Gersh Agency

How did acting begin? What is its history, and what have the great thinkers on acting said about the art and craft of performance? In this single-volume survey of the history of acting, Jean Benedetti traces the evolution of the theories of the actor's craft drawing extensively on extracts from key texts, many of which are unavailable for the student today. Beginning with the classical conceptions of acting as rhetoric and oratory, as exemplified in the writing of Aristotle, Cicero and others, The Art of the Actor progresses to examine ideas of acting in Shakespeare's time right through to the present day. Along the way, Benedetti considers the contribution and theories of key figures such as Diderot, Stanislavski, Meyerhold, Brecht, Artaud and Grotowski, providing a clear and concise explanation of their work illustrated by extracts and summaries of their writings. Some source materials appear in the volume for the first time in English. The Art of the Actor will be the essential history of acting for all students and actors interested in the great tradition of performance, both as craft and as art.

Excerpt from The Actor and His Art: Some Considerations of the Present Condition of the Stage IT was once a principle Of our social economy in choosing professions for our sons, that one should go into the army, another to the Bar, and the fool of the family into the Church. Since the abolition of purchase in the army and the application to candidates for admis sion to the Bar Of the system of examinations, young gentlemen, unable to qualify by the exercise of their brains for the profession of arms or the law, have had to turn elsewhere for a livelihood. Far be it from me to suggest that this affords an explanation of the influx to the Church, which is under-paid as well as over-crowded. Young men of good family in these days go into the City.

Excerpt from Dramatists of the Present Day The belief is wide spread that the English stage is in sickly mood. Those who should best know its condition loudly lament its decline and are proposing means of cure. The restorative measures which have already been suggested are diverse. Last year there was a prolonged discussion on the subject in the press, between authors, actors, and managers. Mr. Boucicault, who had a remedy, originated the controversy. In the lapsed interval much was achieved; but one thing remained for him to accomplish. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
