character development, Mar 5, 2009
By dmanias, Greece

"A book from one of the most important theater directors which teaches a lot about character development.

Chekhov was an important director with a very interesting personal journey."

By Justin, The United States

"One of the most creative and innovative alternatives to pure Stanislavski technique. Perhaps not the best place to delve into acting theory, but certainly one of the most mind-broadening experiences you can have in the area -- like diving into the deep end after dipping your toes."

"As a previous Vocalist / aspiring Actress, this book changed my life! It helped me to not only apply many of the approaches to the art of being a performer, but it also helped me to apply it to an array of other aspects of my life. A must have for the "Performing Artist"."

My Favorite Acting Text, Sep 13, 2007
By wziegler, Seattle, WA

"I had to read this book (along with 28 others) as preparation for acting grad school. It was by far my favorite acting text. It provides a most compelling alternative to "the Method" and other techniques that rely so heavily on the the mining of one's past and his/her personal psychology in creating a role. There are many techniques out there and no serious actor now days subscribes to one and only one, but Chekhov's focus on the power of the imagination appealed greatly to my own sense of adventure and convinced me that acting really can be a creative art form and not just self-therapy."
