The Actor, Image and Action is a 'new generation' approach to the
craft of acting; the first full-length study of actor training
using the insights of cognitive neuroscience. In a brilliant
reassessment of both the practice and theory of acting, Rhonda
Blair examines the physiological relationship between bodily action
and emotional experience. In doing so she provides the latest step
in Stanislavsky's attempts to help the actor 'reach the unconscious
by conscious means'. Recent developments in scientific thinking
about the connections between biology and cognition require new
ways of understanding many elements of human activity, including:
imagination emotion memory physicality reason. The Actor, Image and
Action looks at how these are in fact inseparable in the brain's
structure and function, and their crucial importance to an actor's
engagement with a role. The book vastly improves our understanding
of the actor's process and is a must for any actor or student of
acting.
