Michael Chekhov's classic work To the Actor has been revised and expanded by Mala Powers to explain, clearly and concisely, the essential techniques for every actor from developing a character to strengthen awareness.

Chekhov's simple and practical method – successfully used by professional actors all over the world – trains the actor's imagination and body to fulfill its potential.

To the Actor includes a previously unpublished chapter on "Psychological Gesture", translated into English by the celebrated director Andrei Malaev-Babel; a new biographical overview by Mala Powers; and a foreword by Simon Callow.

This book is a vital text for actors and directors including acting and theatre history students.
