Have you observed in certain Hollywood actors signs of depression, anxiety, and addiction, reckless or even bipolar behavior? If you are a performer, have you ever felt depleted after a role? Have you ever gone though a small depression bout or post-partum syndrome after a play or a film? Do you sometimes feel that a character you’re playing is not leaving you alone, even long after the performances are over? Do you, at other times, feel such an intense resonance with a part that you have a hard time cracking that role?
These could all be the symptoms and characteristics of an ignored – but very real – condition: Post-Performance Stress.
Emmanuelle Chaulet is an international film actress and theatre director, Fulbright scholar, adjunct faculty/artist in residence at the University of Southern Maine Department of Theatre, and included in Who’s Who in America. In her new book – A Balancing Act, the development of Energize! A holistic approach to acting – she makes the passionate plea that actors are exposed to such an intense roller coaster of emotions in their job, that they are subject to post-performance stress. Acting schools, she argues, are not effectively teaching them how to deal with this issue. To solve it, she spent the last ten years researching a brand new holistic approach to acting.
