Book Synopsis Critical Acting Pedagogy by : Lisa Peck
Download or read book Critical Acting Pedagogy written by Lisa Peck and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2024-08-01 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Critical Acting Pedagogy: Intersectional Approaches invites readers to think about pedagogy in actor training as a research field in its own right: to sit with the complex challenges, risks, and rewards of the acting studio; to recognise the shared vulnerability, courage, and love that defines our field and underpins our practices. This collection of chapters, from a diverse group of acting teachers at different points in their careers, working in conservatoires and universities, illuminates current developments in decolonising studios to foreground multiple and intersecting identities in the pedagogic exchange. In acknowledging how their positionality affects their practices and materials, 20 acting teachers from the United Kingdom, the United States, Europe, and Oceania offer practical tools for the social justice acting classroom, with rich insights for developing critical acting pedagogies. Authors test and develop research approaches, drawn from social sciences, to tackle dominant ideologies in organisation, curriculum, and methodologies of actor training. This collection frames current efforts to promote equality, diversity, and inclusivity in the studio. It contributes to the collective movement to improve current educational practice in acting, prioritising well-being, and centering the student experience.

This much needed text provides models constructed by leading researchers in the field and presented at the International Drama in Education Research Institute Conference in 2004. Each chapter in this collection from across the Anglophone world describes a different research methodology. It explains how the methodology was applied to the practice and outlines how teachers and other researchers can employ it in their own contexts. Led by the editor's chapter on the context of research, the contributions include: The Process of Institute Research Stations by Philip Taylor The Reflective Practitioner by Jonothan Neelands Critical Ethnography by Kathleen Gallagher Narrative Inquiry by Bellarie Zatzman A case study by Joe Winston Performance Ethnography by Jane Bacon Post-structuralist Deconstruction by Ian McCormick Feminist Methodology by Sharon Grady The book will be essential reading for research students and teachers because it provides models and approaches that connect with the immediacy of their practice.
Book Synopsis The Application of Deliberate Practice to Acting Pedagogy by : Melissa H. Freilich
Download or read book The Application of Deliberate Practice to Acting Pedagogy written by Melissa H. Freilich and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After watching an incredible performance onstage, one might turn to a fellow audience member and exclaim, "Wow! That actor is so talented!" But what does the word talented mean? Is that actor simply blessed with an innate ability? If we as acting teachers base our work on the assumption that superior performance is only possible if someone is lucky enough to have won the talent lottery, it limits our ability to improve our pedagogy and our students' chances to develop their skills. The theory underpinning deliberate practice, on the other hand, argues that the quality of practice matters far more than innate ability. By understanding the mental representations used by expert actors, any actor can use deliberate practice to improve their skills. Even though acting is an expressive art form, we can adapt the principles of deliberate practice to apply to it. The particular skill that sets some actors apart from the rest is their ability to be present in the moment onstage. Alexander Technique offers one way to develop the skill of presence and to make all practice more deliberate. In an introductory acting class, I applied Alexander Technique principles to teach presence using deliberate practice. The experience demonstrated some of the advantages and challenges of the approach and presented more questions for future research.

Book excerpt: In Edward Albee and Absurdism—the inaugural volume in the new book series, New Perspectives in Edward Albee Studies—Michael Y. Bennett has assembled an outstanding team of Edward Albee scholars to address Albee’s affiliation with Martin Esslin’s label, “Theatre of the Absurd,” examining whether or not this label is appropriate. From scholarly essays and lengthy review-essays to an important interview with the noted playwright and director, Emily Mann, the aim of this collection is to, at last, directly (and indirectly) confront Esslin’s label in regards to Albee’s plays in order to create a scholarly atmosphere that allows future Albee scholars to move on to new and, frankly, more relevant lines of inquiry. Contributors are: Michael Y. Bennett, Linda Ben-Zvi, David A. Crespy, Colin Enriquez, Lincoln Konkle, David Marcia, Dena Marks, Brenda Murphy, Tony Jason Stafford, and Kevin J Wetmore Jr.

Book Synopsis The Drama Therapy Decision Tree, 2nd Edition by : Paige Dickinson
Download or read book The Drama Therapy Decision Tree, 2nd Edition written by Paige Dickinson and published by Intellect Books. This book was released on 2024-03-12 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This substantially revised and expanded edition of the The Drama Therapy Decision Tree provides an integrated model for therapeutic decision-making by uniting drama therapy interventions with diagnostic information, individual and group processes, psychological distance, the drama therapy pie, and global outcomes. This book is a practical guide in four sections, not a checklist. Rather than using a standardized protocol that makes the decisions for the therapist, drama therapy is based on dynamic, embodied, creative action with participants in the here and now. Conscious planning on the part of the drama therapist before the session supports spontaneity and creativity, preparing them to make good therapeutic decisions in the moment during the session. The opening section guides readers through the foundational principles leading readers into Section Two, The Decision Tree, which is a series of questions for early career drama therapists to ask themselves as they prepare treatment plans for clients. Diversity, Equity, and Ethics are covered in Section Three from the point of view of creative arts therapy practitioners. Section Four looks at Integrating the Five Phases of Treatment with the Drama Therapy Pie, following different populations (diagnosis) of clients through the five phases of group therapy in order to illustrate how the Decision Tree supports intervention choice in the different phases of treatment. The authors strive to provide a common language for communicating what drama therapists do and how they do it in order to demystify drama therapy for other mental health and medical professionals. Using the decision tree as a guide, early career drama therapists can move forward confidently and ground their work with participants in an integrated system. An online searchable database of drama therapy interventions provides descriptions, therapeutic outcomes addressed, and other useful information provides a wealth of additional supporting material. There is also a separate online resource of deroling activities. The online resources can also be an asset for non-drama therapists who are wanting to incorporate a more active and embodied component safely into their work, particularly in terms of warm-ups, closure, and deroling.
