Product Information

Acting Is Believing has trained generations of actors and remains one of the most popular and influential classic Stanislavski-based acting books over the past sixty years. Now in its thirteenth edition, it has been reimagined for the art of acting in the twenty-first century. Stanislavski expanded our understanding of the mysterious process that results in truthful acting, devising practical steps to pursue the most elusive element of the artform-inspiration. Acting Is Believing: Stanislavski in the 21st Century, 13th Edition, introduces students to all the major concepts of Stanislavski's System of Acting, providing them with a logical process through which they can master this complex art. It breaks down even the most complex elements defining human behavior in ways that are easy to digest. This new edition has been greatly updated, including: Reworked chapters throughout to bring Stanislavski's theories to life in a language that speaks to today's actors A new approach to entering Stanislavski's Creative State, broken into an innovative five-part process Updated discussions on anxiety, physical tension, social inhibitions, and intimacy onstage Modified solo and group exercises Expanded appendix on self-directed scene study Refined and updated glossary of acting, theatre, and film terminology Acting Is Believing remains grounded in Stanislavski-based technique training, yet this latest text has evolved as a vital resource for twenty-first century artists pursing acting careers in theatre, film, and television. With a foreword by two-time Tony Award winning actor, Norbert Leo Butz, Acting Is Believing continues to set the gold standard in the art of acting for a new generation.

Reviews
This staple of the actor's tool kit is now even more essential with the release of the 13th edition. Equally valuable for the actor in training and the seasoned professional, Acting is Believing is a comprehensive, accessible, and practical guide to the core principles of Stanislavski-based acting technique. Of particular value are the guided exercises that help the actor make the technique their own. An indispensable guidepost for the craft of acting today., Acting is Believing gives you the distillation of a century's worth of observations, advice, and exercises that will help you find your way as an actor. You also have the advantage of learning, in later chapters, how to approach the business end of an actor's profession, something I had to learn belatedly, pounding the pavements of New York City., I love the truth of this book and its breadth. I love that the acting process is described in great detail for the novice or professional, yet it's mysterious, too. This is an important book to have on your bookcase to dive back into time and again for insights into our artform., The acting techniques and exercises in Acting is Believing can give you insights and abilities you will use the rest of your life, no matter what you do for a living. Over the years, this book became my acting bible, and I learned to relax and allow myself to fail often and grow as an actress while discovering how to enjoy the whole learning process., This book, perhaps more fundamentally than any other, offers a full investigation of the complexity of the art of acting that is hidden behind the truthful simplicity of the title: 'acting is believing.' Within these pages, an actor will find analysis, exercises, examples, and demonstrations that can guide an individual's exploration of inner creativity; these lead to the phenomenon in which the character and the actor become one in the experience of a living play. Reading this book . . . will elucidate an understanding of what it takes to develop your talent to its maximum capacity. If you follow the logical progression the author provides, you will explore step by step all the means available to make your performances natural and revelatory., Loved it! Kenneth L. Stilson was my acting teacher in the mid-90s. Now, several decades into my own journey as a professional actor and acting coach, I'm thrilled to rediscover the foundations he taught years ago in a fresh text that feels wholly relevant and accessible in today's world. Acting is Believing is filled with great advice, exercises, and insights about the art of acting. It's a thorough and engaging text appropriate for both amateurs and seasoned professionals. What I love most about Stilson's Acting is Believing 13th edition is how vital it feels in today's industry. He's brought forward techniques and ideas that made the book a classic to begin with and married it with the intricacies of the industry in the 2020s. It's accessible, authentic, and artistically engaging. Now, in my third decade as a professional actor, Acting is Believing is a great reminder of the foundations of the craft, and also a treasure trove of fresh insights on being a working actor in today's complex theatre business., In our volatile, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous world, it is a rare thing for a classic acting text to retain its relevance as a foundational primer in the principles of the craft as well as a guide to applying those tools in context. Stilson's revisal remarkably does both and is well worth the time spent for the inquisitive practitioner who wishes to investigate the existential dilemmas of the human experience in this ever-evolving global environment to which contemporary dramatists, griots, storytellers, what you will, are responding.
