Produktbeschreibung
This groundbreaking collection of curated interviews provides an opportunity to hear from Black and Global Majority actors and artists working internationally as they discuss their careers to date, from what they wish they had known to the pitfalls they are still learning to navigate. Structured around the classic actor-training concept of the 'given circumstances' - a tool that an actor might use to determine the wider context of their journey from page to stage to screen - the book offers up rare, multi-perspective insights into approaches to actor training, professional experiences, career choices, narrative voices and creative process. How this is experienced - in an industry that is still defining how Black and Global majority presence translates into visibility and power - is a deep abiding theme that resonates throughout. Interviewees include Noma Dumezweni, James Earl Jones, Indhu Rubasingham MBE, David Oyelowo OBE, Fisayo Akinade, Sheila Atim MBE, Francesca Amewudah-Rivers and many more.
