Acting Through Song : Techniques and Exercises for Musical-theatre Actors

"An impassioned and invaluable guide for actors and students of musical theatre. In Acting Through Song, ​ Paul Harvard takes the techniques of modern actor training - including the theories of Stanislavsky, Brecht, Meisner and Laban, amongst others - and applies them to the fundamental component of musical theatre: singing. With dozens of exercises to put these theories into practice, and numerous examples from a broad range of musicals, the result is a comprehensive and rigorous acting course for those training in musical theatre or already performing, whether amateur or professional, to realise their potential - and act better."--Publisher's description.
