About this title

Synopsis

These words of Cicely Berry, the voice director of the Royal Shakespeare Company, speak to anyone who needs to speak his or her piece – in any arena, at sales meetings or religious revivals. Berry's book will insure that the speaker and the text gets heard – accurately and with true emotional range. Never again will one be accused of simply “reading a prepared statement.” Berry's exercises to develop relaxation, breathing and muscular control will literally help everyone breathe easier when confronting the printed page.
