Written especially for those who coach tween and teenage actors, this delightfully fresh workbook tells you the how, when, what, and why of theatre games for young performers. Starter scenes allow first-time performers to ease onto the stage in baby steps. Spontaneity is encouraged along with etiquette and basic acting principles. The concepts of pantomime, improvisation, character development, voice, and body control are all presented in game formats with exercises. Nine chapters include: Before You Begin, Preparing, Starter Scenes, Exercises, Games, Improvisation, Pantomime, Non-Acting Theatre Games and Activities, and Developing Your Program, plus an Activities Index. Anyone working with young actors will find this theatre book exceptionally helpful, and you'll love that it's written by Suzi Zimmerman, author of the best-selling Introduction to Theatre Arts.

Zimmerman, Suzi: - Suzi Zimmerman is no stranger to performance. She attended Kilgore College, home of the Texas Shakespeare Festival, on an acting scholarship and continued her education at Texas A&M University in Commerce, Texas. Zimmerman eventually founded Theatre Off the Wall, a small acting company, which evolved into her hometown's community playhouse. She found her true love in teaching, but at that time, there were few resources available for middle and high school drama teachers. To bridge the gap, she began collecting and designing her own creative, hands-on lessons and organizational forms and has published them into a collection of books. She has directed and appeared in over two hundred plays and has also appeared in dozens of TV commercials and industrial videos. She retired from teaching in 2008 but continues to influence young people through her extensive volunteer work.
