Key Benefit: For over twenty years, Robert Benedetti's highly acclaimed The Actor at Work has offered readers a thorough focus on the underlying principles of the acting process. Key Benefit: Now in its seventh edition, The Actor at Work continues to present an experiential sequence of exercises designed to help readers develop a thorough understanding of the physical, vocal, analytical, and ethical aspects of the actor's art. This accessible revision begins by concentrating on the preparation of body and voice in Part I. Part II then examines the concept of action, and Part III concludes by focusing on development of character in the rehearsal process. Market: For professionals working in the dramatic arts.
