Actors and actresses play characters such as the embittered Medea, or the lovelorn Romeo, or the grieving and tearful Hecabe. The theatre audience holds its breath, and then sparks begin to fly. But what about the actor? Has he been affected by the emotions of the character he is playing? What'sgoing on inside his mind? The styling of emotions in the theatre has been the subject of heated debate for centuries. In fact, Diderot in his Paradoxe sur le comedien, insisted that most brilliant actors do not feel anything onstage. This greatly resembles the detached acting style associated with Bertolt Brecht, which, in turn, stands in direct opposition to the notion of the empathy-oriented "emotional reality" of the actor which is most famously associated with the American actingstyle known as method acting. The book's survey of the various dominant acting styles is followed by an analysis of the current state of affairs regarding the psychology of emotions. By uniting the psychology of emotions with contemporary acting theories, the author is able to come to the conclusion that traditional acting theories are no longer valid for today's actor. Acting Emotions throws new light on the age-old issue of double consciousness, the paradox of the actor who must nightly express emotions while creating the illusion of spontaneity. In addition, the book bridges the gap between theory and practice by virtue of the author's large-scale field study of the emotions of professional actors. In Acting Emotions, the responses of Dutch and Flemish actors is further supplemented by the responses of a good number of American actors. The book offers a unique view of how actors act out emotions and how this acting out is intimately linked to the development of contemporary theatre.

Based on the latest research from the fields of neuroscience and mind-body psychology, Acting With Passion offers a revolutionary new approach to the age-old problems of the actor: dealing with nerves, engaging the body, quieting the inner critic, auditioning, creating a character, and even playing comedy. With this step-by-step guide, actors who have struggled with 'visualization' and 'emotional recall' can learn an alternative method of accessing feelings through the release of chronic, subtle muscular tensions that connect into the brain at lightning fast speed and can actually produce emotions on cue. Written with verve and accessibility, and using practical exercises to guide the actor through each stage, Acting With Passion is the must-have text for actors seeking that magical 'state of aliveness'.

In the context of the modern trends in the development of world theater pedagogy, using interdisciplinary research methods, this book is dedicated to the nature of emotional memory in the light of scientific discoveries made in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries in physiology and psychology and its application in the modern acting training described in the System of the early Stanislavsky and the Strasberg Method. The main body focuses on Strasberg's Method and reexamines his theater philosophy and practice in the context of these scientific findings. The documents used for the analysis are Strasberg's A Dream of Passion and other authors' books based on transcriptions of tape-recorded lectures and exercises conducted by him over several decades. The analysis focuses on specific means and techniques that Strasberg used for actors to find, arouse, manage, and express emotions during their training, rehearsal, and performance. Strasberg's success in applying emotional memory is primarily due to his educated pedagogical intuition. In his Method, he simultaneously used five different approaches to move from the actor's conscious preparation to subconscious creativity. Each one of these techniques alone could lead to Strasberg's desired result: arousal and expression of the necessary emotion. He managed to combine them, achieving success in unaffectedly capturing feelings and emotions. This combination of techniques could be applied today to allow trained actors to evoke the necessary emotion using their emotional memory and cause it to express itself organically. The book intends to bring clarity to some controversial reactions to Strasberg's Method. It offers suggestions for a systematic approach, not only in the educational programs of acting and directing but also in the work of professional actors and directors. It contributes to the development of modern theater theory with the analysis of emotions, emotional memory, and the memory of sensations as bases of all creative processes.
