Produktbeschreibung

This is a portrait of the life and work of acting teacher and author Sonia Moore, whose book The Stanislavksi System is still in wide use in acting schools and universities. By analyzing Moore's research, teaching, and directing, the authors convey not only what Moore attempted with her work, but also reveal how she became a kind of artistic heir to Stanislavksi.
