Intended for performers, teachers and health-care workers, this volume describes the psychological problems of the stage, with a focus on education and prevention. It seeks to take the reader on a vivid journey of the performer's private world, where personal insecurity often wages an unsuccessful battle against the stresses of the profession - whether these are unrealistic weight requirements, debilitating injuries or stage fright. It is part of a series on creativity research.
