Cloze Test (Stages of Acting)

Conservatories and drama schools typically offer two- to four-year
training on all aspects of acting. Universities mostly______ three- to four-
year programs, in which a student is often able to choose to focus on
acting, whilst continuing to learn about other aspects of theatre. Schools
vary in their approach, but in North America the most popular method
taught derives from the 'system' of Konstantin Stanislavski, which was
developed and popularised in America as method acting by Lee Strasberg,
Stella Adler, Sanford Meisner, and others.
Other approaches may include a more physically based orientation, such
as that promoted by theatre practitioners as diverse as Anne Bogart,
Jacques Lecoq, Jerzy Grotowski, or Vsevolod Meyerhold. Classes may also
_________psychotechnique, mask work, physical theatre, improvisation,
and acting for camera.
Regardless of a school's approach, students should expect intensive
training in textual interpretation, voice, and movement. Applications to
drama programmes and conservatories usually ______extensive
auditions. Anybody over the age of 18 can usually apply. Training may
also start at a very young age. Acting classes and professional schools
targeted at under-18s are widespread. These classes introduce young
actors to different aspects of acting and theatre, including scene study.
Increased training and exposure to______speaking allows humans to
maintain calmer and more relaxed physiologically. By measuring a public
speaker's heart rate maybe one of the easiest ways to judge shifts in
stress as the heart rate increases with anxiety . As actors increase
performances, heart rate and other evidence of stress can decrease.This
is very important in training for actors, as adaptive strategies gained from
increased exposure to public speaking can regulate implicit and explicit
anxiety.By attending an institution with a specialization in acting,

increased __________to act will lead to more relaxed physiology and
decrease in stress and its effects on the body. These effects can vary from
hormonal to cognitive health that can ______ quality of life and
