The Existential Actor: Life and Death Onstage and Off

By Jeff Zinn

This is a book for the thinking actor, and the finest actors are just that. The best actors bring it all together-body, heart, spirit, and mind. This book is for the actor who thinks about craft and influence, who thinks about the relationship of performance to living, who thinks about doing and what that doing means. Acting is a metaphor and it's a mirror, and, so, a theory of acting, if true, shows us to ourselves. Jeff Zinn knows this. He knows it as an actor, director, teacher, and thinker. His "theory of everything" is simple and revelatory.
