This book follows one of his acting classes for fifteen months, beginning with the most rudimentary exercises and ending with affecting and polished scenes from contemporary American plays. Written in collaboration with Dennis Longwell, it is essential reading for beginning and professional actors alike. Throughout these pages Meisner is a delight—always empathizing with his students and urging them onward, provoking emotion, laughter, and growing technical mastery from his charges. With an introduction by Sydney Pollack, director of Out of Africa and Tootsie , who worked with Meisner for five years. "This book should be read by anyone who wants to act or even appreciate what acting involves. Like Meisner''s way of teaching, it is the straight goods."—Arthur Miller "If there is a key to good acting, this one is it, above all others. Actors, young and not so young, will find inspiration and excitement in this book."—Gregory Peck Review: Must Read!!!!!!! - Got to recommend this book purely because I was stuck using the method of actioning training in the second year of uni. This has opened my eyes to what acting is about, being realistic and truthful. It gives an insight of what Meisner teaches and his method of how to prepare for any scene as an actor. Definitely using his method from now on! Review: A must read for actors! - There's really nothing left to say about Meisner that has not already been said. I can see why he earned himself a name in drama. Here is the key thing I got from him - Acting is simplicity. Actors tend to over complicate things a lot. This is just an essential book for any aspiring actor! Buy it. It's practical as well. ## Features - Sanford Meisner on Acting - product type: ABIS BOOK - brand: Vintage ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 17,542 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 2 in Performing Arts Reference 5 in Stagecraft 34 in Acting & Auditioning (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 1,915 Reviews | ## Images ![Sanford Meisner on Acting - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71WXn81aa6L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Language, Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Must Read!!!!!!! *by E***Y on 21 September 2015* Got to recommend this book purely because I was stuck using the method of actioning training in the second year of uni.
