It is not a basic tool-book but a reflection of the author in his 30 years practice on the theatre through Acting and Directing. These two areas deal primarily with human being, while all other external objects and scenic elements are only in its service. The ideas and methods proposed in this book all come from his personal experience in his creative works which are very practical and possessing clearly articulated concepts which originate from how he perceives life. The issues which he is trying to address are very universal in the field of performing arts, especially in theatre. At the end, he concludes with some important life experiences which he has accumulated until now so that he is firstly a man, then an artist.
The Three Levels in the title mean: Level One, Level Two and Level Three. Level One refers to those things which are absolutely necessary in your creative work, without which it will crumble, Level Two refers to those things which you can have or you can do away with. Level Three refers to those things which must not appear in your creative work.
ABC refers to a principle of Yin and Yang. If A is a certain state of thing, then B is its opposite, and C is something in between, or elsewhere. Though this book aims at readers who have already got some sort of professional experiences in performing arts, beginners and people who simply love life will also find it interesting and inspiring.
