Using elements of neuroscience and wellbeing, Ingleson and her team of diverse authors share how mindfulness creates more believable and affective acting from a modern perspective. They discuss active, engaged performance and self-care and share workshop and rehearsal exercises that readers can take away and use in their own practice. British, American, African, European and Asian heritage voices come together to explore an inclusive and kind theatre-making and share new approaches to life in the industry and actor training. The contributors to this book, introduced by a foreword from Professor, director and author Anne Bogart, comprise theatre professors, directors and actors, Buddhists, Yoginis, academics, arts psychotherapists and mindfulness teachers.

Part of the "Stanislavsky And…" series, Stanislavsky and Mindfulness is an accessible resource for theatre students, drama teachers and academics and readers with an interest in acting and how to apply mindfulness to different areas of our lives.
