Description:
"Beatrice Manley has adapted 80 scenes from Dicken's classic novels, introducing each with a brief discussion of the emotional life of the characters, and a summary of events leading into the scene. Two practical and inspirational chapters explore the richly theatrical nature of Dickens' characters, and Ms. Manley's natural approach to making acting as simple as breathing.". "This invaluable collection will delight all lovers of Dickens, and all actors who long to enrich their stock of audition material or simply immerse themselves in the pleasures of a vividly emotional theatrical world of one of the great master plot and character writers of all time."--BOOK JACKET.
