description: When actors prepare a role, they need to use their powers of observation and creativity. When they perform before an audience, they need a whole range of presentational skills and plenty of self-confidence. Directors and drama teachers often use games and exercises to develop these skills, which are not relevant to the theatrical world alone they are the same skills needed for job interviews, committee meetings and other everyday performances. This book gives a wide variety of games and exercises designed to develop observation, imagination, presentation and self-confidence. Though written primarily for directors, actors, drama teachers and drama students, this book will be of use to anyone who sometimes faces situations that demand effective presentation.
