DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from Plays for Private Acting With one exception, the plays in this volume have been selected from the three volumes of Théatre de Campagne and the two volumes of Saynètes et Monologues which have lately been published in Paris. The exception is "He and She," which is from the Italian. The translator's absence in Europe prevents rectifying his omission of the author's name. In order to adapt these plays for American acting, the translators have taken many liberties with the text - too many to make specific mention practicable.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from Plays, Acting, and Music: A Book of Theory When this book was first published it con tained a large amount of material which is now taken out of it; additions have been made, besides many corrections and changes; and the whole form of the book has been remodelled. It is now more what it ought to have been from the first; what I saw, from the moment of its publication, that it ought to have been: a book of theory. The rather formal announcement of my intentions which I made in my preface is reprinted here, because, at all events, the programme was carried out.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →Excerpt from Acting and Play Production: A Manual for Classes, Dramatic Clubs, and Little Theatres Producing plays is an art, as those who have tried it will testify. It is therefore no doubt a kind of impertinence to write a manual on the subject at all, as the arts are notoriously unteachable. Nor is it main tained that the mere following of this pro posed course in dramatics will produce a renaissance in acting. What is hoped is that it may give some valuable suggestions for avoiding error, plot out a path that is not too thorny, and help the actor and di rector perhaps even by its very imperti mence to rise On the stepping - stone of its dead body to a realization of that higher genius that is creatively at work in them. For genius, like the winds of inspiration. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
