Theatre Studies; Acting techniques

The classic voice-training book for actors, teachers of voice and speech and anyone interested in vocal expression – by a pre-eminent voice teacher, actor and director. Fully revised and expanded edition.

Linklater's approach is to liberate the voice you have rather than apply vocal techniques from the outside. Her basic assumption is that everyone possesses a voice capable of expressing whatever emotion, mood or thought he/she experiences.

This edition incorporates vocal exercises developed over three decades to help the voice connect viscerally with language – a key element in the actors' craft.

'a radical breakaway from the old formal methods... an invaluable new resource... essential' Educational Theatre Journal
