Book excerpt: In this provocative book by actor Kyle Secor (Homicide: Life on the Street, The Flash, Veronica Mars), you're invited on a wild ride into the unknown where the 'me' and the 'actor' are not all they appear to be. Where the freedom of acting without an actor and doing with a doer may be the unavoidable expression of Love. Not only for actors, but a book anyone might keep nearby as a reminder of just what is.

Book excerpt: In The Death of the Actor Martin Buzacott launches an all-out attack on contemporary theatrical practice and performance theory which identifies the actor, rather than the director, as the key creative force in the performance of Shakespeare. Because actors are absent from the site of Shakespearean meaning, he argues, the illusion of their centrality is sustained only by a rhetoric of heroism, violence and imperialism.

Book excerpt: This is a book for the thinking actor, and the finest actors I've known are just that. The best actors bring it all together body, heart, spirit, and mind. This book is for the actor who thinks about craft and influence, who thinks about the relationship of performance to living, who thinks about doing and what that doing means. Acting is a metaphor and it's a mirror, and, so, a theory of acting, if true, shows us to ourselves. Jeff Zinn knows this. He knows it as an actor, director, teacher, and thinker. His theory of everything is simple and revelatory. (from the foreword by Todd London)

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is concerned with such questions as the following: What is the life of the past in the present? How might “the theatre of death” and “the uncanny in mimesis” allow us to conceive of the afterlife of a supposedly ephemeral art practice? How might a theatrical iconology engage with such fundamental social relations as those between the living and the dead? Distinct from the dominant expectation that actors should appear life-like onstage, why is it that some theatre artists – from Craig to Castellucci – have conceived of the actor in the image of the dead? Furthermore, how might an iconology of the actor allow us to imagine the afterlife of an apparently ephemeral art practice? This book explores such questions through the implications of the twofold analogy proposed in its very title: as theatre is to the uncanny, so death is to mimesis; and as theatre is to mimesis, so death is to the uncanny. Walter Benjamin once observed that: “The point at issue in the theatre today can be more accurately defined in relation to the stage than to the play. It concerns the filling-in of the orchestra pit. The abyss which separates the actors from the audience like the dead from the living...” If the relation between the living and the dead can be thought of in terms of an analogy with ancient theatre, how might avant-garde theatre be thought of in terms of this same relation “today”?

Book excerpt: Do cheaters go to Hell? Actor Tom O'Rourke secretly cheated on his wife for thirty-five-years and went to Hell. Appearing to his wife in a lucid dream, he came back from the dead to set the record straight.After Tom's devastating revelation that he'd been a secret cheater, there were many troubled layers of deceit to peel back in the search to understand what drove him to cheat. You wouldn't think such an intelligent, sensitive man could get so messed up, but it's been my experience working in advertising and show business with models, photographers, actors, directors, and other creative types, that it is often the most intelligent, sensitive people who are the most messed up, particularly if they've had difficult childhoods, like Tom did.Author Marcy Casterline O'Rourke is a Barnard College graduate, former Eileen Ford high fashion model for Vogue, Elle, and Harper's Bazaar, and veteran actress of dozens of TV commercials. Moving from small town New Jersey to New York City, she studied acting at the Actor's Studio and with Lee Strasberg, working in many off-Broadway theaters. While pursuing her career, she met and married ex US Army paratrooper and Goodman Theater student, actor Tom O'Rourke. He subsequently became a popular TV star, creating the role of Justin Marler on the soap opera the Guiding Light; later co-starring opposite Sandra Bullock in the sitcom Working Girl for NBC; working as a regular on all the Law and Order shows, and appearing in Maid in Manhattan, American Gangster, United 93, and many more TV shows and films. If you've ever wondered about sin and Hell, this journey of one man's soul from his troubled life to his next world experiences will open your eyes and change the way you live. These afterlife revelations are a stunning new way to grasp the intimate connection between our minds, our choices, our souls and God's forgiving nature. The wisdom of a dead man can help you live a better life and avoid the Hell he found himself in. Thomasorourkeactor.blogspot.com
