Abstract Details

, Master of Arts, University of Akron, Theatre Arts.
This thesis seeks to discover the ways that Constantin Stanislavski's Method of Physical Action works together with David Mamet's practice of verbal action like music and lyrics, respectively. In today's world, listeners are more likely to respond to music with lyrics than without lyrics. Likewise, combining the music and lyrics of action generates more impact for audiences than by using them separately.
