Beyond Method

Stella Adler and the Male Actor

Beschreibung

Stella Adler (1901-92) trained many well-known American actors yet throughout much of her career, her influence was overshadowed by Lee Strasberg, director of the Actors Studio. In Beyond Method, Scott Balcerzak focuses on Adler's teachings and how she challenged Strasberg's psychological focus on the actor's à â Å selfà â  by promoting an empathetic and socially engaged approach to performance.
