Becoming: How to Connect to Character Deeply is a practical guide for actors who want to move beyond simply performing a character and begin experiencing life from the character’s point of view.

Through imagination, physical exploration, emotional connection and a deeper understanding of relationships and circumstances, this book helps actors create characters who feel specific, truthful and fully alive.

Rather than teaching actors to force emotions or imitate a result, Becoming offers a process for building the internal and external world of the character. The deeper that world becomes, the more freedom the actor has to remain present, respond honestly and discover new moments during performance.

Inside, readers will find:

• A clear process for exploring and developing a character
• Practical exercises designed to strengthen imagination and connection
• Approaches to physical and emotional character work
• Tools for understanding relationships, circumstances and personal meaning
• Original monologues and classical material for continued practice

This book is designed for actors at every stage—from those beginning their training to experienced performers searching for a deeper and more personal process.

“The depth of your art lies in the power of your imagination.”
