Tommy Wonder & Tom Stone - Building an act

PDF download

A treatise on act building and routine construction by Tommy Wonder. Additional material by Tom Stone.

DESCRIPTION

In 2005, Tommy Wonder published a booklet with advice on how to build an act. For some unknown reason, it never got distributed and only a few close friends have seen it.

With the permission of Tommy Wonder’s Estate, this lost manuscript is now finally released as an ebook.

It also contains additional writing by Tom Stone on the topic of how to create a whole show.

40 pages. 19 illustrations.

Building an Act is an inspirational manuscript, from two professionals that know what they are talking about! There is no foolish, academic “theory”, just practical advice on getting started on your creation.
Often, what is lacking in building your dream act, is the confidence and encouragement that you can do it. It is provided here in spades, but you will still have to contribute the courage, hard work, and dicipline.
Rest assured, Wonder and Stone want you to succeed, and even list the pitfalls and setbacks they have experienced in their own efforts. It’s all part of the process, and these professionals have given you the road map to follow.
Get Building an Act, and get to work!
—John Carney

Review:
1.Great and insightful read for anyone serious about the art.

2.Tommy Wonder studied acting, dancing and singing – and it shows! This man surely knew how to construct an act. As always, this a delightful combination of very well-researched and very well-experienced theorectical advice as well as some very down-to-earth, very hand-on practical excercises to get you going in building an act. Mr Stone’s annotations fit into the script like hand-in-glove and add more interesting aspects to the art and science of getting away from: “Here I have a red sponge ball – I will now transfer it to my left hand …” and getting to logically stringing things together, imroving your theatrical skills along the way. At 19$ you are practically stealing this from WARG!
