Recenzii
“Seven Pillars Acting is a comprehensive outline to the craft of acting. Its progression of exercises integrates many different approaches to acting, creating a step-by-step guide from listening to simple presence to camera-ready performance. Sonya Cooke’s writing is very clear as she describes in detail the many elements an actor can use to make his work both truthful and dependable.”
Stephen Wangh, author of An Acrobat of the Heart and The Heart of Teaching
“Seven Pillars Acting is not attempting to replace an in-person acting class—it’s something different and deeply needed by actors who crave an empowered, independent practice. It offers a bridge from technique to real-world application—a structured framework for developing a personalized, evolving practice. As a living document, it becomes a tool for self-assessment and self-coaching. There is an underlying ethos that respects and believes in actors’ purpose and right to own their work."
Reiko Aylesworth, actor in 24, ER, Damages, The Other F Word, Hawaii Five-0 and more
