Over The Actors Bookshelf

Two moderately-not-infrequently employed actors go through the books their teachers assigned them to read in conservatory, in a digestible audio medium. Will they absorb the information this time round? Remains to be scene.

19-The Method by Isaac Butler (Act III)

We're back at it dropping a proper banger of an episode, the conclusion of  what we're calling Season 1 with the long awaited deep read of…. Act 3!!! We got gossip, we got death and downfall, and we go lots to say about all of it. After this one we'll take a bit of a break, read some more books, book more jobs, watch more shows, and maybe try out some teaching and then come back with more episodes! Thanks as always for listening and reading along.  ~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~ We're on Instagram! @TheActorsBookshelf Follow The Actors Bookshelf on Twitter @actorsbookshelf and Bluesky @theactorsbookshelf Follow Patrick on Instagram @dfwpadraig Follow Dan on Instagram @the.other.dan.stevens Questions?

18-An Actor Prepares. We read it and it's......

bad it's bad. You know it (or do you?), you love it (but should you?), it's Konstantin Stanislavski's major text An Actor Prepares (not the original title in Russian). Dan and Patrick had a grand old time snuffling through this pile of dirt for a couple of juicy informational truffles, and we're here to let you know whether or not this book belongs on your Actors Bookshelf. Some highlights from our conversation: * The importance of the Objective and Super Objective in Stanislavski's System, and how those terms have done a major disservice to generations of modern actors, * The ways systemic patriarchy, misogyny, and racism permeate the book in ways that instantly set it at a distance from the reader, * Stanislavski was not good at writing about his own ideas Rave reviews from your hosts * "Yeah dude, it's a fascinating read." ~ Daniel A Stevens * "It's an important book, even if it's not a good book." ~ Patrick Harvey ~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~ We're on Instagram! @TheActorsBookshelf Follow The Actors Bookshelf on Twitter @actorsbookshelf and Bluesky @theactorsbookshelf Follow Patrick on Instagram @dfwpadraig Follow Dan on Instagram @the.other.dan.stevens Questions?
