Synopsis:
Whether you are a beginning, intermediate, or advanced students of acting, AN ACTOR PERFORMS will help you use your experience and imagination to approach performance! You'll explore problems common to all actors: understanding the text, finding it a viable interpretation, dealing with the language of the play, and using one's body and mind and imagination to create a fully realized performance.
