This book was released on 2000 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rojo (dramatic arts, U. of Connecticut) describes the method of acting and performance he developed. Using the actor's own self-personality, the psychophysical technique employs extemporaneous games and exercises in a specialized workshop that can lead to a performance for an audience. He begins by setting out the theory behind the method, then explores the function of games and exercises in the workshop setting, and describes the games and exercises themselves. The approach has roots in the methods of Stanislavski, Meyerhold, Brecht, and Grotowski, but also draws on Richard Schechner's more recent theory and practice of environmental theater. The text is double spaced. Annotation copyrighted by Book News Inc., Portland, OR.
