5.0 out of 5 stars Textbook a timeless classic., 1 Nov 2001
By A Customer
Taking part in a recent Cicely Berry workshop here in Australia reminded me how necessary this very simple but extremely vital book is in an actors training. The clarity with which both Berry and Nunn discuss the finer details of the profession clears up any head scratching confusion so many other techniques are often want to offer. This must surely rank amongst the Empty Space's and Impro's of this world where they will be studied in years to come.
