The Elemental Actor - How to Release Your Hidden Powers $29.99

Mel Churcher

Published by Nick Hern Books

We are all a complex mixture of the elemental energies identified by many different cultures throughout history - Earth, Air, Fire, Water – and a fifth element called Quintessence or Spirit

As an actor, you need to be able to access each of them, so that you can draw on whichever element you need to bring your role fully into life

In The Elemental Actor, Mel Churcher explores these deep, primal drives, and gives you practical tools to harness them to make your work more powerful and alive

Her unique approach combines elements of actor training, voice work and movement to increase your range and help you bring depth, specificity and intensity to your performance

Offering an everlasting palette that will enrich any performance, whether on stage or screen, The Elemental Actor will help you release the wellspring of your imagination, and put elemental power into your work

The fantastic practical new book from one of the UK’s top acting and dialogue coaches contains over one hundred inspirational drama games and exercises for actors, tips for preparing for auditions and dealing with performance anxiety, as well as advice on how to stay healthy in body, voice and mind

Mel Churcher has worked with companies including the Royal National Theatre, Royal Shakespeare Company, Regent's Park Open Air Theatre, Shakespeare's Globe, Young Vic, Royal Court Theatre and Graeae Theatre Company
