How to Steal the Scene, Even though Unconscious...., April 6, 2002
Reviewer:Debra A. Burrell (Norfolk, VA USA) - See all my reviews

This tome is full of useful information for the coarse actor, including "How to Steal the Scene, Even though Unconscious," "How to be a mere Spear-Carrier, and still ruin a scene," "Basic Makeup Tips for the Coarse Actor," and the useful diagram on set building "The Human Cleat." Anyone who's ever been in a performance of "Arsenic and Old Lace" will appreciate this book -- as will anyone who's ever sat through the show. (Not that I'm slamming "Arsenic and Old Lace," I think it holds up remarkably well.) Should be required reading in all theatre coarses. Oops, I mean courses...
