The Independent Actor presents a 21st-century training route achievable by self-curated learning for actors of all skill levels. This book rejects a purist approach to actor training, challenges traditional acting styles and disregards the embedded elitist notions of Western-training methods at the top of the hierarchy. Instead, it takes a contemporary, self-focused approach to learning and applying acting skills.

Through doing so, the book is the first to validate a self-curated approach to actor training. Designed as a companion to practical experience and useful as a reference sourcebook, it takes the position that each individual actor must find their own process. Skills for theatre, screen and voice-recorded media are all embraced through practical tasks with signposts to essential reading and specific resources.

Designed equally for the untrained actor as a companion and an aide-mémoire for the professionally trained actor, this book sheds light on the practical skills required and how to access, practise and accomplish them.
