At long last, Acting Class
brings to every reader Milton Katselas' renowned approach to both the
craft and career of acting. Katselas is the founder of the Beverly
Hills Playhouse acting school in Los Angeles, and for decades has been one of
America's foremost directors/teachers.
George Clooney, Michelle
Pfeiffer, Alec Baldwin, James Cromwell, Doris Roberts, Jorge Garcia,
Tom Selleck, Anne Archer, Giovanni Ribisi, Michael Peña and Patrick Swayze are just some
of the celebrated actors that have benefited from Milton’s
teaching.
Previously available only to his students at the BHP, Katselas' Acting Class
takes the reader inside the legendary classes that he has taught for
over forty years. You will feel as if you have taken a seat in the
theatre, as much of its material is adapted directly from actual
critiques of professional actors in the classes.
Acting Class covers in detail
the three areas central to the Katselas approach: Acting, Attitude and
Administration. The uniqueness and universality of Katselas' teaching
comes from this three-pronged attack, which not only addresses the
craft of acting, but also the proper attitude with which the actor
should pursue his or her work, as well as an extensive section on the
proper technique of career administration.
Down-to-earth, accessible, funny, and conversational, Acting Class
is the culmination of 40 years of teaching that has helped thousands of
actors achieve both the art and the careers of their dreams.
