Wrong headed title
This is a well known book, but its title is exactly wrong if one truly understands Stanislavski. Stanislavski taught that acting is NOT believing; but rather the actor treating people and things on stage as if they were what he wants the AUDIENCE to believe they are. He does this by logically carrying out a series of physical actions, justifying everything with the...

This review is from: Acting Is Believing (Hardcover)
This is a well known book, but its title is exactly wrong if one truly understands Stanislavski. Stanislavski taught that acting is NOT believing; but rather the actor treating people and things on stage as if they were what he wants the AUDIENCE to believe they are. He does this by logically carrying out a series of physical actions, justifying everything with the "magic if"; but not really believing it. So, in fact, according to Stanislavski, acting is not believing at all.
