If you've ever taught Acting.....
if you've ever tried to understand why people love Acting and need to pursue it, either as a professional or as a devoted amateur....
This book was written with you in mind.
Venturing into the world of professional theatre requires a special way of thinking and a proper understanding and acceptance of the challenges to be met and overcome. Young actors with powerful dreams about a glamorous career on Broadway or in film and TV media often embark on their journeys with little knowledge of the mindset necessary in order to give them the best opportunities to survive....and succeed. And often, the families and teachers who want to support their dreams and ambitions, know even less. After a successful professional acting and teaching career spanning nearly 50 years, 20 of which were spent helming one of the most prestigious high school theatre preparatory programs in America, Dr. Montee gives specific advice for ambitious young actors, their teachers, and their nervous families in this collection of essays born of decades of experiences working with students, many of whom have gone on to successful careers in a variety of professions, artistic and otherwise. Covering subjects that range from preparing audition material, to initially encountering Shakespeare, to laying a foundation for beginning directors, to ultimately deciding if the life of a professional actor is really for you, DON'T PUT YOUR DAUGHTER ON THE STAGE? provides valuable perspectives for anyone interested in exploring a life in the theatre--either as a professional or as a devoted amateur--as well as offering gentle counsel for the teachers and families who love them.
