Featuring dozens of improvisational exercises in the innovative spirit of Viola Spolin, and supplemented with practical appendices on mask design and construction, forms and checklists, and other classroom materials, this book is an invaluable tool for teacher and student alike, as well as compelling reading for anyone interested in acquiring a deeper understanding of masks as agents of transformation, creativity, and performance.

This study examines the effect of the mask upon the masked performer int he Balinese Topeng and Calonarang dance dramas and Japanese Noh Theatre. It represents the first systematic study of the relationship between the actor and the mask from the performer's perspective. The approach is largely empirically based and draws upon the author's extensive field research in Bali and Japan which included interviews with performers and mask makers, study of mask carving and dance and observation of private lessons and public performances. This study will be of interest to scholars and students in many fields including Anthropology, Cultural Studies, Performance Studies, Theatre, Dance and Visual Arts. It will be also of interest to theatre and dance practitioners, especially those working with masks or intercultural performance.

"John Emigh and Lesley K. Ferris explore the role of masks in theater, whose roots lie in ritual performance. Cara McCarty looks at the ways in which masks are featured in the medium of film as well. But these artistic examples are not the only masks found in industrial societies. McCarty also discusses the proliferation of masks for physical protection, in areas such as military combat, sports competitions, and space exploration."--BOOK JACKET.

You can hit, you can field, but can you make them laugh? Working from interviews and questionnaires, Bradsaw (theater, Gonzaga U.) also uses his personal experience with a ComedySportz team in describing the intensive preparation necessary to get players ready for competitive improv comedy. He describes the history of the art form, the workshops conducted to help players develop the timing of trapeze artists and the hides of rhinos, and the fine points of a sport that favors explosive mind games over protective headgear, however handy the latter may be. He includes a list of teams in the Comedy League of America, the games played in ComedySportz, and a sample questionnaire. We were amused. The text is double-spaced.
