Description - Space to Move by Christian Darley
The vital building blocks of movement training ' a key sourcebook for actors, directors, students and teachers.
In precise detail, Darley sets out the exercises and techniques she developed with her own drama school students. She deals with the vital building blocks of movement training: awareness, relaxation, tension 'particularly Lecoq's Seven States 'and suspension, before progressing to areas in which she was a pioneer: animal work, contact work, visual spacing, and the relationship between voice and movement.
'Christian was much more than a teacher, she was an indomitable and extraordinary spirit' Anna Maxwell Martin
'A useful teaching resource and a handy guide for any actor'
