Description

Explore the history and practice of physical performance with Movement Training for the Modern Actor. This Routledge publication offers the first critical analysis of the principles that shape how actors train in the modern era. By examining the cultural history of movement pedagogy, the text provides a deep look into how training methods influence the professional identity of the actor. Readers will examine the development of the 'neutral' body, a key component in modern drama school training. The book also investigates the connection between movement instruction and the ways discipline and power shape an actor's career. It provides detailed studies on the impact of influential figures such as Laban, Alexander, Copeau, and Lecoq. This volume is an essential resource for those studying the evolution of theatre and performance through the lens of physical training and historical development.
