About this title: A collection of 125 acting exercises that are based on journal excerpts and dialogues from Mr. Morris' classes. These exercises teach the actor to systematically eliminate his or her instrumental obstacles -- tensions, fears, inhibitions -- and explore the "being" state, where the actor does no more and no less than what he or she feels.

"Jason recommended this and it is interesting, I can't seem to hold interest long enough to read it straight threw just random and not for much longer."
"This is a must read for all actors. It focuses on an actors ability to be in tune with himself and with the sensory world around him. So many acting books/techniques focus on how an actor should interact with the world, without paying much attention to why an actor reacts the way he does. The Eric Morris system examines the value of "know thyself." Like most other books on acting, this is best read/experienced in conjunction with good classwork, either with Eric Morris in Los Angeles or Anthony Vincent Bova in New York.
Despite its necessity for actors, I rate it 3 stars because it's not a particularly enjoyable reading experience."
"really good exercises for scene paartners and for getting in touch with yourself before a performance. I would love to take a class with Eric mOrris!"
