"There is a mystery in every play that is written, no matter
whether classical and poetic or modern and demotic, and it is the
sound and the rhythm of the writing which take us there." Cicely
Berry, the Royal Shakespeare Company's Voice Director, has been
working alongside some of Britain's greatest actors and directors
for over fifty years and is widely regarded as one of the most
significant voice teachers in the world. From Word to Play draws on
Cicely's extensive experience of working with theatre companies in
Britain and throughout the world. It is her manifesto for a return
to the words themselves: for moving away from an
over-conceptualised, over-literal view of language and
rediscovering the meaning in its sounds and rhythms. At the heart
of this book is a concise, practical guide for directors in
rehearsal, setting out work strategies that help bring out both the
shape and the details within all kinds of text - whether verse or
prose, seventeenth-century or contemporary. With a Foreword by
Michael Boyd, Artistic Director of the RSC.
