| Summary: | Drama begins with the word. Characters, plot, conflict, genre, all are created through language. An ability to understand how language works is invaluable. Actors need to learn not only how to use their voice, but how to use voice and language together. The Dramatic Text Workbook is a textbook which explores the expressive potential of language, and how you as an actor can develop your verbal skills to release that potential. Written by acclaimed voice teachers David Carey and Rebecca Clark Carey (Oregon Shakespeare Festival, RADA) this book provides practical approaches to each aspect of verbal expression with the aid of classical and modern scenes and speeches. A follow-up to The Dramatic Text Workbook, and now including a revised introduction, updated reading lists and a comprehensive revision of the major exercises within the book, it is supported by over ninety minutes of online video workshops, exploring the key techniques and tactics explored in the book. |
