TIPS: Ideas for Actors

by Jon Jory

Until very recently, acting wisdom was passed on the form of "tips." Here are 205 of them-ranging from using opposites to the way to set a laugh, and on through a clear definition of "actions," how to use a "breath score," and even how to react if you're fired. The tips are clear, concise, evocative and constructed to give you a better day in rehearsal and a better night in performance. A buffet of ways to improve immediately that you'll want to have with you in your rehearsal bag.
