<p>"The study of acting should not begin with an exploration of feeling, perception, imagination, memories, intention, personalization, self-identification... or even performance--but physical action."</p><p></p><p>Michael Lugering's The Expressive Actor presents a foundational, preparatory training method, using movement to unlock the entire acting process. Its action-based perspective integrates voice, movement and basic acting training into a unified approach. </p><p>A wealth of exercises and diagrams guide the reader through this internationally taught program, making it an ideal step-by-step course for both solo and classroom use. Through this course, voice and body training becomes more than a simple skill-building activity - it is the central prerequisite to any actor training. </p><p>This new Routledge edition has been fully updated, to include: </p><ul><ul><p><li>A revised prologue, further discussing the historical and philosophical grounding of The Lugering Method </li><p></p><p><li>A new introduction, with particular focus on the integrative nature of the method and how the book should be used. </li><p></p><p><li>New developments, clarifications, and 12 new exercises. </li><p></p><p><li>6 new illustrative diagrams.</li><p></p></ul></ul>
