Actor Training Conclusion Notes and References Bibliography IndexReviewsReview of the Original Publication: “This book starts promisingly with an overview of the relationship between rhetoric and acting since the Greeks, followed by a discussion of twentieth century politics which leads into a structural approach to vocal delivery. Once a language for talking about voice in the theatre has been established, it is then used to consider various interpretations of Hamlet… this in turn becomes a springboard for examining vocal delivery in the theory and practice of various directors including Grotowski, Brecht, Foreman, and Bergman, with particular emphasis on their relationship to Shakespeare.” - Franc Chamberlain, New Theatre Quarterly, Volume 8 Issue 29 Author InformationJacqueline Martin (at the time of the original publication of the book) was a Research Fellow in the Institute for Theatre Studies at Stockholm University.
