Uta Hagen was one of the most revered actresses on the American Stage and a highly influential teacher when she wrote the best-selling Respect for Acting in 1973. In 1991 she revised, updated, and expanded her teaching with A Challenge for the Actor. Hagen explores goals, techniques, sensation and expectation with passion and insight.
Casting Director Michael Shurtleff explores the art of the audition - how to get to the heart of your character and your scene - as well as more mundane details like what to wear.
