Description: To the Actor is one of the foundational texts of modern acting theory, written by Michael Chekhov—actor, director, teacher, and nephew of Anton Chekhov. Drawing on his work with the Moscow Art Theatre and his later influence on American stage and film acting, Chekhov presents a practical and imaginative approach to performance that has shaped generations of actors. This Harper & Row cloth hardcover reflects the period when Chekhov’s techniques were becoming firmly established in American acting studios and conservatories. Illustrated by Nicolai Remisoff, the book remains a serious working text for actors, teachers, and students of performance, as well as a strong addition to a curated theater and performing arts library.
