Laban for actors and dancers - Jean Newlove
putting Laban's movement theory into practice
KORTE INHOUD
Laban is to movement what Stanislawski is to acting. He devised the first wholly successful system for recording human movement, a system which is increasingly influential in the training of actors and dancers.
Jean Newlove was Rudolf Laban's first assistant when he came to England. She subsequently became movement teacher to Joan Littlewood's Theatre Workshop and has trained several generations of performers.

The book ends with practical examples of how the movement training can be used in the development of characters in specific plays.
