No-one has had a greater influence on acting as we know it than Stanislavski. His 'system' - or interpretations of it - has become the central force determining almost every performance was see on stage or screen. His teaching principally set out in three famous books, An Actor Prepares, Building a Character and Creating a Role. It is still the only comprehensive theory of acting we possess

| Summary/Abstract |
Yoshi Oida is a Japanese actor and director who has worked mainly in the West as a member of Peter Brook's theatre company in Paris. He blends the oriental tradition of supreme and studied control with the Western performer's need to characterise and expose depths of emotion. In this study of the actor's art written with Lorna Marshall, Yoshi Oida provides every performer with all the simple tools which help place the technique of acting behind a cloak of invisibility. Yoshi Oida believes that once the audience becomes openly aware of the actor's method and becomes too conscious of the actor's artistry, the wonder of performance dies. The audience must never see the actor but only his or her performance.

| Summary/Abstract |
Until his death in 1999, Jacques Lecoq taught indefatigably at his International Theatre School, which he founded in 1956. Here, translated for the first time into English, Lecoq shares his unique philosophy and teaching methods, which together form one of the greatest influences on contemporary international theatre. Neutral mask, character masks and counter-masks, bouffons, acrobatics, commedia, clowns; all the famous Lecoq techniques are included - techniques that have made their way into the work of former collaborators and students such as Dario Fo, Ariane Mnouchkine, Julie Taymor, and Theatre de Complicite.

| Summary/Abstract |
Chekov has recorded the results of his many years of experimenting, testing and verifying in the professional theater and schools of theater. He brings to the actor far greater insight into himself and the character he is to portray, which enables him to approach any role with new ease and skill. Chekhov was told by Stanislawsky to organize his observations and thoughts and present them to his audience.
