The essential actor ' s manual for vocal mastery from "the most respected voice coach in Britain . . . a dynamo of thoughts, suggestions and exercises" (Mel Gussow, The New York Times ). In The Actor Speaks, Patsy Rodenburg takes actors of all levels through a complete voice workshop. She touches on every aspect of performance work that involves the voice and sorts through the kinds of vexing problems every performer faces onstage: breath and relaxation; vocal range and power; communication with other actors; singing and acting simultaneously; working in both large and small auditoriums; approaching the vocal demands of different kinds of scripts; and more.
