Great Scenes in Dialect for Young Actors Book

Hill (voice and speech, the Young Conservatory of the American Conservatory Theater) presents a series of scenes that can be used by young actors to practice Russian, American southern, New York, standard British, Cockney, and Irish accents. Each accent is afforded a separate section, each of which contains introductory advice, sound change breakdowns, and a list of other dramatic works that can be used for reference.
