The Routledge Companion to Studio Performance Practice

is a unique, indispensable guide to the training methods of the world’s key theatre practitioners.

Compiling the practical work outlined in the popular Routledge Performance Practitioners series of guidebooks, each set of exercises has been edited and contextualised by an expert in that particular approach. Each chapter provides a taster of one practitioner’s work, answering the same key questions: ‘How did this artist work? How can I begin to put my understanding of this to practical use?’ Newly written chapter introductions put the exercises in context, explaining how they fit into the wider methods and philosophy of the practitioner in question.

All 21 volumes in the original series are represented in this volume, as well as specially commissioned new chapters on Tadashi Suzuki, Lee Strasberg, Stella Adler, Sandford Meisner, Antonin Artaid, and Joseph Graham.
