Introducing...Gurus: the Story of Acting, from Stanislavsky to Succession
Gurus: the Story of Acting takes us from the bad old days of stagey, artificial, over-the-top acting to where we are today, with performances that are subtle, authentic and true. In this episode we meet some of the main figures in the story, including Constantin Stanislavsky and Jacques Copeau. Then we listen in on a conversation between Gurus host, Jeff Zinn and Alfre Woodard, who has been astonishing audiences with her humanity, her truth, her beauty, and her versatility as an actress since she first came into view in the early 1980’s. Woodard has received various accolades, including four Emmy Awards, a Golden Globe Award, and three Screen Actors Guild Awards, as well as nominations for an Academy Award and two Grammy Awards. In 2020, The New York Times ranked her as one of "The 25 Greatest Actors of the 21st Century." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
