Swashbuckling

Swashbuckling is the ultimate guide to stage fighting technique and basic swordplay. In words and in pictures -- about 400 of them, almost all taken expressly for this large-format book -- it covers everything an actor must know and everything an actor must do to give a dynamic and convincing performance as a stage combatant. Covered in detail are weaponry, warm-up exercises, unarmed combat, footwork, defense and attack techniques, and working with fight directors. Copyright (C) Muze Inc. 2005. For personal use only.
