The acting process is an interlocking trinity: the person, the
actor, and the character. The person has habits and idiosyncrasies
cultivated over the years in response to life experiences. The
actor may have developed another set of behaviors that manifest
themselves during a performance. The exercises within this text
will guide the user toward making the necessary choices needed to
achieve the extension of self to character whether that involves
utilizing personal traits that are congruent to a character's
make-up, or discarding personal habits which do not fit. Movement:
From Person to Actor to Character concisely collects many common
movement principles such as use of breath, alignment, relaxation,
imagery, and surroundings. Illustrations are included which provide
the actor with a basic knowledge of the human body and function
that can serve as a foundation for advanced movement techniques.
Case studies outline a variety of characterization projects from a
range of well-known plays, to further illustrate some of the
exercises within the text. Mitchell's text will be useful for
beginning to intermediate movement courses or as a supplement to
acting or directing courses, or by actors seeking to enrich their
movement technique.
