Other People's Shoes: Thoughts on Acting - Walter, Harriet

Clean, tight, unmarked; slight wear to inside corners; otherwise absolute minimal wear; appears unread; In this book, Harriet Walter takes us step by step through the processes involved in performance. And each step of the way is illuminated with brilliantly precise examples from her own career. So we are introduced to the Workshop, the Rehearsal, and the Roots and Pathways into a role. Then follows the main meat of the book: six Keys to the Development and Exploration of character. The closing section deals with Performance on stage and screen. As Richard Eyre says, every young actor should read this book - for its unparalleled insights into the everyday working life of an actor, and into quite how much hard work is needed before they can convincingly put themselves in other people's shoes.
