概要

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
