(Applause Books). There has been a great change in the last twenty
years to actor auditions, which now require the demonstration of
enormous flexibility. The actor is often expected to show more
range than ever before, and often several shorter audition speeches
are asked for instead of one or two longer ones. To stay at the top
of his or her game, the Shakespearean actor needs more knowledge of
what makes the play tick, especially since the early plays demand a
different style from the later ones. Each genre (comedy, history,
tragedy) has different requirements. No current monologue book
deals directly with the bulk of these concerns. One More unto the
Speech, Dear Friends now fills that gap. This three volume set will
help actors discover the extra details of humanity that the
original folio texts automatically offer. Of Shakespeare's 37
plays, only Pericles is not included. In the trilogy of books there
are over 900 separate audition possibilities. This represents about
600 more monologues than are available in any other series. There
are four parts to each speech: * A background giving context and
approximate timing; * A modern text version; * The original folio
version; * Commentary to explain the differences between the two
texts including full discussion of the devices peculiar to that
speech's genre, the age and gender of the character, and more.

1940s - the use of light, shadows and styling created a timeless

film noir images and ideas, and finally, explains how to shoot film
