Over four sessions of 11 weeks each; we followed Larrys interpretations of Sanford Meisners teaching in a very caring and trusting environment. I cant say enough good things about this experience. It really changed my life as an actor and as a person. I see that a reviewer here has said that you cant learn acting from a book. Well of course you cant; but that doesnt mean that great books cant be an immense help. How many have poured over Stanislavkys books and found inspiration there? And these books are wonderful. They lay out paths to follow without anxiety or fear; in a straightforward; simple and productive manner. I mentioned the atmosphere of trust in my classes; Im sure that began with Larry. Find a teacher who knows this work; get hold of the books; and enjoy!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. ... form that was understandable in a book was quite good. I studied Meisner in NBy Customerthat Larry could put the work in a form that was understandable in a book was quite good. I studied Meisner in N.Y. WITH the late; great Robert X. Modica who studied w/Meisner in the 50`s ;taught at the Playhouse and in his own studio. Larry Silverberg has a love; respect for the work that does my soul good.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Great book on emotional prep.By Matthew LoganThis book focuses on specificity and detail in creating emotional accessibility for an actor. It is very good; but must be used in practical application (all acting must).
