Summary: Get Another Book
Comment: This book in a compilation of the authors' little acting stories. Some of the stories have some use, but most of which don't. I have done high school shows and a few community theater shows, and yet, still found little information I didn't already know. I'm sure there are other books out there that have more and better information, but hey, if you happen to have a collection of useless acting books, go ahead! Buy it!
Rating: 1
Summary: Not this one
Comment: This book is extremely basic (and a bit age-ist). It's fine for someone trying not to look like a fool in their local community theater, but for anyone considering a serious career in professional acting, there are other books that provide a better, more comprehensive, and more practical introduction.
I bought this as one trying to return to the field after a long absence, but found "Breaking Into Acting for Dummies" to be better instead. For the basics of acting in general, Michael Shurtleff's "Audition" is the still the very best investment in a book that you can make.
Rating: 5
Summary: Terrific!
Comment: This book gives the reader an incite into the acting world never before offered. I highly recommend it to the beginning actor as well as the accomplished thespian. The helpful recommendations for auditioning will be of great value not only to the actor but to the casting directors and producers.
