"Refreshing and imaginative, this book teaches through enhanced
awareness and instructs through clear and specific exercises."
Cicely Berry A practical course for actors and other professional
voice-users to achieve clarity and expressivity with the voice.
Setting out the fundamental principles of voice training, the book
provides structured and informed methods for developing vocal
power, range and flexibility. At the heart of the book are
practical projects with exercises which enable you to: - connect
your breath with your voice - meet the demands of your performance
- use your voice expressively through fully controlling pitch and
range Each chapter consists of an introductory framework;
explorations; exercises; follow-up work; suggested texts and
further reading altogether offering a unique, student-centred
approach not found in other voice books. This revised edition
speaks more directly to the actor, rather than the voice teacher,
through revised terminology and descriptions, updated references,
additional appendices on health and other issues related to trends
in contemporary drama and questions of equality, diversity and
inclusion with respect to vocabulary and suggested texts. Includes
forewords by Cicely Berry and Fiona Shaw.

Image: bringing life and specificity to images when you speak *
Sense: how to focus on the most significant words and phrases in a
speech or scene * Rhythm: how rhythm is created and used in both
verse and prose * Argument: the structure or logic of language The
Dramatic Text Workbook and Video, a new edition of The Verbal Arts
Workbook, includes a revised introduction, updated reading lists

The Shakespeare Workbook and Video provides a unifying approach to
acting Shakespeare that is immediately applicable in the rehearsal
room or classroom. It is an easy-to-use text providing practical
exercises in specific aspects of Shakespeare's language such as
meter, imagery, rhetoric and sound play. In each of these areas, it
takes the reader through three steps: Speak the Text, Question the
Text and Act the Text. Online video material provides an insight
into the acting process and shows the authors teaching a workshop
in their method for acting Shakespeare to a group of young actors.
The Shakespeare Workbook and Video is the go-to textbook for a
practical exploration of Shakespeare's canon.
