I realize that I have been disrespectful towards acting as an art and I apologize dearly to Uta Hagen for ever having done so

3,5 stars rounded up to 4

I especially loved part 1 which has some real gems of advice and thoughts on art in general.

Though I don’t really feel like doing the self-directed exercises in the book myself, especially since I have acting classes twice a week. But besides that it still has lot of applicable advice.

Love uta’s wisdom and it seems to hold up aside from it technically being originally published in 1973 - took forever to read because of me, not because of her. Truly was a very delicious read and I do love how she goes into such colorful detail about each particular example of a scene or idea or circumstance, and endows everything so deeply and beautifully!!!

one of many theater books to be reviewed in the next few months as i’m in the midst of working on my senior comps.

not only beautiful and passionate opinions and thoughts on theater, but really grounding in an educational sense. Hagen brings you back to the basics not in a patronizing way, but in a let’s-return-to-why-we-do-this-at-its-core

probably should have read this freshman year
