Description: The first philosophical study devoted solely to acting, offering a meditation on the spillover from acting to life

Review Quotes: "As an investigation into the philosophical foundations and ethical implications of what Zamir calls 'the most popular approach to actor instruction in the English-speaking world, ' Acts is sure to assume a prominent place in the literature on performance and philosophy. Without ever overlooking the ethical quandaries of the actor's craft, Zamir gives full-bodied testament to the power of acting in revealing our fullest selves."
--- Theatre Journal--David Kornhaber, University of Texas at Austin "Theatre Journal"
