Sinopsis

David Mamet has written a blunt, irrevenrent and unsparingly honest guide to acting. True and False leaves no acting tenet untouched, overturns convernational opinion, and tells aspiring actors what they really need to know: - How to judge the role and approach the part. - How to work with the playwright. - The right way to undertake auditions and rehearsals. - How to think about the scene. - The proper approach to agents; and the business side of acting in general. Mametis unmistakably clear about why he thinks actors should not be taken in by the highly touted notions that have become commonplace in most acting schools and courses. True and False confronts some of the profession's sacred cows and offers an invaluable guide to acting today.
