Produktbeschreibung

Herbert Berghof began his Studio in New York in1945. Uta Hagen joined him in 1945. Together, they trained generations of actors as the Studio grew from rented space on 26th Street to today's three buildings at 120 Bank Street in the West Village. Uta wrote The Studio Story (and she re-wrote it as theStudio and Playwrights Foundation grew and expanded).

¿Edith Meeks, Executive & Artistic Director of HB Studio has provided a foreword. In it she writes, "The personal and professional stories of Herbert Berghof and Uta Hagen are inextricably intertwined with the story of HB, their Studio: the haven they created for theater artists to pursue their own ideas and methods."

The publication of this book is a gift from Uta's daughter Letty Ferrer and her grand-daughter, Teresa Teuscher, in honor of the Centennial of Uta's birth.

Autorenporträt

Uta Hagen originated the role of Martha in the 1962 Broadway premiere of Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? by Edward Albee, who called her "a profoundly truthful actress." Because Hagen was on the Hollywood blacklist, in part because of her association with Paul Robeson, her film opportunities dwindled and she focused her career on New York theatre.She later became a highly influential acting teacher at New York's Herbert Berghof Studio and authored best-selling acting texts, Respect for Acting, with Haskel Frankel,[1] and A Challenge for the Actor. Her most substantial contributions to theatre pedagogy were a series of "object exercises" that built on the work of Konstantin Stanislavski and Yevgeny Vakhtangov.She was elected to the American Theater Hall of Fame in 1981.[2] She twice won the Tony Award for Best Actress in a Play and received a Special Tony Award for Lifetime Achievement in 1999.https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Uta_Hagen&oldid=1106699737
