Acting and How to Survive it: Everything you wanted to know about acting but were too afraid to ask...

The first-ever book published in NZ about acting technique, 'Acting and How to Survive it' also takes in surviving and thriving in this most challenging and alluring of vocations.

Here you'll find not just the nuts and bolts of technique, but insights into the head game, winning psychology, and tips on living an artistic life of resilience and integrity. Here is any actors' one-stop shop, a book destined to become a must-have for Drama Schools and classes throughout Australasia - and the world. 'Peter is a very gifted actor who will always be genuinely interested in exploring his work and finding new approaches to it, and opening this out to his fellow actors.'
