Description: Most scene study anthologies target only younger actors and overlook the mature performer, a growing part of acting classes, workshops and community theaters. Now drama teacher and lecturer Lorraine Cohen, creator of Scenes for Young Actors and Monologues for Young Actors, and Dr. Richard A. Imundo, founder and artistic director of the New Dimension Theatre Studio, Inc. and its acting school, share their expertise with an essential collection of more than 50 scenes for men and women in their 40s, 50s and beyond. Selected from the wide landscape of the world stage, these scenes offer a broad range of emotional challenges to serve the mature actor: from the high drama of King Lear to the farcical antics of Moon Over Buffalo. Each includes a detailed introduction that contextualizes the scene within the play, and the play in theater history.
