<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Eight lectures given in 1957 at the Playhouse Theatre, New York.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>A dynamic, inventive and articulate stage director explores in practical, down-to-cases language "The Method: " what it is and is not; the nonsense, the misconceptions, the myths that have sprung up and flourished around it; its development as a workable theory of stage technique and its application to all types of theatrical production.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>Common sense has become rather desperately needed in regard to the Method which may simply be defined as a codified formalization of the technique of acting. The author is trying to make the point that there is an historical or chronological correspondence between the realistic school of dramaturgy and the Method, the Method relates to every kind of acting - good acting - and not narrowly to realistic acting as such.
