Joy of Acting: All-purpose recipes for the actor

by Caroline Kava

Modeled after the famous cookbook, Joy of Cooking, Joy of Acting is a teaching and reference text on Stanislavski-based acting technique.
Its entry way is Caroline's training with Sanford Meisner at the Neighborhood Playhouse. She outlines Mr. Meisner's notable exercises (Repetition, Emotional Preparation. . .), accompanied by comic strips by Jessica Warrick. She also discusses the principles they demonstrate. Caroline then proceeds to apply these principles to the analysis and playing of text, based on Caroline's own education and experience. She uses Hedda Gabler and Othello to demonstrate. The book provides a thorough go-to for any acting challenge onstage, in film and television.
