I would like to purchase 2 or 3 books on acting. When I say acting I mean the craft of acting rather than a book on how to get an audition or break into Holywood. I would like to read the Canonical, the great, the one that everyone should read book on acting. For example I have heard that 'Sanford Meisner on Acting' is a great book. Your thoughts? Recomendations.......

'Empty Space' - Peter

'Empty Space' - Peter Brooks 'The invisible Actor' - Yoshi Oida My two most prized acting books... Based on theories of the theatre and theatrical acting. They really open your eayes up to what is beyond the 'Stanislavski' technique.. and believe me.. there is much more...
