No matter what stage you're at as an actor – whether you're planning to apply for drama school, a recent graduate, or an industry veteran – there's always more to learn and room to grow as a performer. 

In this selection, we've rounded up some great books to help you develop your existing acting skills, or learn new ones. Choose from practical and inspiring guides to screen acting, voice, improv, Shakespeare, singing, movement, stage combat, physical comedy, and more – all available at 40% off in our Sale.

Plus, £1 from every book sold in our Sale will go to the Theatre Artists Fund, which continues to provide emergency support for theatre-workers and freelancers across the UK affected by the devastating impact of COVID-19 on the theatre sector.

Remember, everything included in the Sale has been handpicked from the shelves at NHB HQ, and stock is strictly limited. So if you see something you want, move fast to avoid missing out – because once it's gone, it's gone!
