Description

A vital, easy-to-use tool for actors that will revolutionise how you rehearse. Based on the best-selling book. Actions: The Actors’ Thesaurus is a vital tool for actors. It is perhaps the most widely used and admired book for use in rehearsals today – and is now available on your iPhone or iPad to help you find exactly the right action word within seconds. Actors need actions. You cannot act moods. You need to be doing something with every line. You need an aim to achieve, and an action selected to help achieve that aim. ‘Actions’ are active verbs. In order to play a line truthfully, you need to discover the action that suits that particular situation and that particular line. That is where this app comes in… It is a fully searchable, easy-to-navigate thesaurus of active verbs, that will help you refine your acting choice until you find the action you require to make each line come alive. Features include: · A to Z search, and predictive search function · Emotional groupings to help you pinpoint the action you require · Bookmark, note-making and random word functions · Share your actions on social media or by email · Full instructions on how to use actioning in rehearsal, plus how to use the app For actors at all levels and of all ages, Actions: The Actors’ Thesaurus will revolutionise how you rehearse. Once you’ve started using it, you’ll wonder how you ever managed without it. ‘If you want to act, or act better, Actions will take you a long way on the journey to excellence’ Terry Johnson Actioning aint easy – but its so useful Zawe Ashton Based on the bestselling book Actions: The Actors’ Thesaurus by Marina Caldarone and Maggie Lloyd-Williams

Great

Tinytiggz · 10 years ago · v1.1

I couldnt find a book near me so gave the app a try. Its very easy to use and it has helped more than the standard thesaurus Ive been working with. The only annoying thing is it doesnt let you scroll down to see all the synonyms if the list is too long. If this could be fixed 5 stars.

Cant scroll down...?

Great app but if the list is long I cant scroll down on the list of the words related verbs. Also when I try to favorite a word it saves the wrong one.

Finally!

As a professional actor, theatre professor, monologue coach, and director I had found the book invaluable. As an avid tech head I had been awaiting this app since I bought my first iPhone and now its here and I love it! The interface is simple in appearance and usage but thats all it needs to be. If you are an actor or an aspiring actor, do yourself and your technique a favor, get this app.
