"The Actor and the Target comes from the heart of his own experience. Fear, generalising and other actor's blocks are dismembered lethally and with infectious relish." Alan Rickman
"Brilliantly direct, the 'target' equips the actor with keys to unlock the fears and flab of acting. Declan's insightful voice guides us to the heart of the process; exhilirating to read and more importantly to put into practice." Joseph Fiennes.
"Cuts open every generalisation about acting and draws out gleamingly fresh specifics." Peter Brook
