 Beginner's Savior! Apr 20, 2001
I am just entering the film acting business, and I have tried to hold no illusions about how the industry works. Unfortunately, no matter where you live, you'll hear stories about Hollywood, both good and bad ones. It feels so intimidating to even consider acting as a profession, and there seems to be no one willing to guide you in the proper direction. How much does a mentor cost these days? In this book, Margie Haber gives us actors the help we need to feel comfortable and confident at auditions. She helps us understand that the casting director is not an evil monster toying with our fate and our careers, but a harried and tired worker, the same as we are. She also gives us tips and exercises to be a better auditioner. The icing on the cake is the stories, told by established actors, about their own mistakes and successes. Seeing that even well-known and respected actors have their slip-ups helps to bring the green actor more confidence. Whether you are new to auditioning or a seasoned professional, this book will help alleviate the cold reading jitters.

A must read for all actors Jan 18, 2005
By Tony Martinez
"author of AN AGENT TELLS ALL"
As a talent agent, I always recommend this book to both new and working actors. Margie is one of the best acting teachers in LA. Her book is written in a no nonsense manner and the advice is very valuable. It's the next best thing to being in her class. This one's a must have.

Get the book! It will invigorate your auditions! Jul 08, 2003
By Irene Glezos
I LOVED this book! We actors all know what it's like to not prepare the way we need to for an audition. In reading Margie's book, I realized it's not just fear (masked as paralysis or procrastination) that keeps us from preparing. It's cause we aren't sure what questions to ask -- questions that will REALLY stimulate and plug us in when we only have 10 minutes, an hour, a day -- at any rate, not 4 nice, long weeks of rehearsal -- to bring life to the role. Just by reading this, I felt like I had taken a course. For seasoned actors as much, if not more, than for beginners. A handbook of what we could all stand to be reminded of. This book has made auditioning FUN again.

Not just for beginners Dec 14, 2007
By B. Harter
We use Margie's books in our classes at yourACT Acting Classes in Atlanta, and Margie herself comes to teach her Advanced Intensive once or twice a year. We were impressed with the book, and even more impressed with Margie. I have been acting for more than 3 decades, and she taught me things about auditions and cold-reading that I had not learned anywhere else. In particular, her "Phrase Technique" allows actors to "take it off the page" without trying to memorize the text as they go. It's revolutionary and freeing.

 A MUST! May 10, 2010
By Ingrid Torrance
"Ingrid Torrance, author of Act! a step by step guide to starting your acting career"
This is a great book on acting. It covers everything you have to know about auditions. It has very valuable information of what to do and not to do in the audition room. It also has scenes and breakdowns step by step so you, actor, can understand better how to do it. It comes with examples of good resumes, interviews with agents, casting directors and managers. I think this book helps the actor how to better understand a good performing audition and learning how to control nerves. It's full of tips for the actors and is a fun book to read.
