Meisner for Teens: A Life of True Acting, is truly a first. Never before has a book for teen actors offered these specific and simple ways to open your heart, your mind, and your soul to your acting partners and to the world around you. There is urgency here! Larry knows how important your acting is to you, he also knows the pressures you face every day in your life and how that often gets in the way of being truly free to act. The sad fact is that 95 percent of actors are working in ways that are false, artificial, hollow and lifeless. Now, with the lessons offered in Meisner for Teens: A Life of True Acting, you will rise to the top 5 percent of all actors. Moving, intimate, and… profoundly human, this new book by renowned author and master acting coach, Larry Silverberg, offers you the keys to working in ways that are deeply passionate, vibrantly alive, simple, and true. Just as thousands of students have done in his workshops for teens all around the world, as you absorb the lessons in Meisner for Teens: A Life of True Acting, you will learn how to avoid the traps of bad acting and you will awaken to the specific ingredients that make acting thrilling, joyous and breathtakingly real. You will discover that the pressures of performing for the audience will lift, the worries about am I good enough will evaporate and the fears of fully expressing yourself will disappear. Out of his deep commitment to teen actors which led him to write his book, The 7 Simple Truths of Acting for the Teen Actor, Larry offers you a book that will help and guide you toward growing as an actor and an artist who has the courage and the strength to be completely who you are, to be totally yourself, to reclaim your unique voice and your truthful point of view and to become a true actor for life! Dear Larry, I find your books to be fascinating, compelling, and so accessible to anyone unfamiliar with the Meisner Approach to acting. What strikes me the most about it though, is the love which is woven into your attitude toward the acting student and his work. I will definitely be using your texts as my primary source for my acting classes here at Texas Tech.
