In the book’s introduction we can read: ‘It’s about the beginning. The start in the profession which people constantly find so fascinating. But is it really possible to “learn” this profession? Is this profession not something that a person can only really be born with? Can you learn art? Yes, you can. But to be serious and creative for a long time in the acting profession, education is needed. Because, without mastering the basic methodological means, even the best material will be used up. The acting method, which this book is devoted to , and its didactics were summarized by Professor Rudolf Penka on the basis of the working methods of Bertolt Brecht and Konstantin S. Stanisławski ".
