The Expressive Actor
"The study of acting should not begin with an exploration of feeling, perception, imagination, memories, intention, personalization, self-identification... or even performance—but physical action." Michael Lugering's The Expressive Actor presents a foundational, preparatory training method, using movement to unlock the entire acting process. Its action-based perspective integrates voice, movement and basic acting training into a unified approach. A wealth of exercises and diagrams guide the reader through this internationally taught program, making it an ideal step-by-step course for both solo and classroom use. Through this course, voice and body training becomes more than a simple skill-building activity – it is the central prerequisite to any actor training. This new Routledge edition has been fully updated, to include: A revised prologue, further discussing the historical and philosophical grounding of The Lugering Method A new introduction, with particular focus on the integrative nature of the method and how the book should be used. New developments, clarifications, and 12 new exercises. 6 new illustrative diagrams.

Expressive action
"The expressive actor series by master teacher Michael Lugering brings together voice, movement and basic acting skills in an integrated and comprehensive training method. The exercises and improvisations are simple, repeatable, ideal for daily preparation, and can be practised alone or with others to keep the voice and body ready for the rigorous demands of rehearsal and performance... A group of actors demonstrate a variety of improvisatory techniques and exercises designed to expand the actor's imagination and expressive power. Rooted in impulse, spontaneity, and creativity, the improvisations will lead you to new and unfamiliar methods of expression never thought possible and many of which you have never experienced in your personal life." -- Container.
