Along with directing for the Nevada Conservatory Theatre, Lugering works as a teacher of voice, movement, and acting at the U. of Nevada, Las Vegas. Here, he guides actors through a series of
voice and body exercises supported by improvisational studies all of which are designed to increase flexibility in and mastery of expressive action. Figure diagrams and vocal charts guide
readers through exercises focused on using the voice and body, centering, lying and breathing, sitting and sounding, and standing; as well as practice in first-function improvisation, language,
and character. Annotation ©2008 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
