The classic voice-training book for actors, teachers of voice and
speech and anyone interested in vocal expression - by a pre-eminent
voice teacher, actor and director. Fully revised and expanded
edition. Linklater's approach is to liberate the voice you have
rather than apply vocal techniques from the outside. Her basic
assumption is that everyone possesses a voice capable of expressing
whatever emotion, mood or thought he/she experiences. This edition
incorporates vocal exercises developed over three decades to help
the voice connect viscerally with language - a key element in the
actors' craft. 'a radical breakaway from the old formal methods...
an invaluable new resource... essential' Educational Theatre
Journal 'the best and only work of its kind for vocal training'

A practical approach to breaking through the barriers of restraint
and incomprehension when faced with Shakespeare. Taking many of the
techniques explored in her international bestseller Freeing The
Natural Voice, in this companion volume Kristin Linklater shows how
to apply them to the exploration and speaking of Shakespeare's
language. Beginning with exercises designed to break long-held
habits and allow an emotional rather than intellectual relationship
to Elizabethan language, she analyses Shakespeare's strategies for
creating character, story and meaning through figures of speech,
iambic pentameter, rhyme and the alternation of verse and prose.
Using copious examples from the plays, Linklater offers her readers
the tools to increase understanding and make Shakespeare's words
their own.
A classic text for theatre and film it has sold 100,000 copies in
