Two of the biggest musical-theatre stars working today answer questions submitted by the public on a wide range of theatrical topics. A message from Louise and Mark...This is the book for anyone whos seen a show and thought: That could be me...Thats what we used to think growing up, dreaming of working in musical theatre. Now, after years of hard work, weve been lucky enough to star in some amazing shows, including Wicked, The Book of Mormon, Ghost: The Musical, Evita and Cats. Weve picked up lots of tips from other performers, and have developed our own strategies and solutions too. In this book, using this knowledge and our experiences, we want to draw back the curtain and shine a spotlight onto how you can follow in our footsteps. What makes our book really different (and useful) is that we asked our fans worldwide to submit questions and thank you to the hundreds of you who did. Dozens of these questions are featured here, covering every aspect of the industry: What is it like training at drama school?How can I improve my vocal range?How do I prepare for an audition?How should I find and select an agent?How do I deal with rejection?How can I progress from the ensemble to a leading role? This is a tough and competitive business, but passion, determination, a clued-up approach and this book will help see you through. Read it to discover the secrets you need to know, and we hope that one day soon, up on stage, it will be you.

Raul Priori, detto il Tenebroso, e un giovane filosofo-filantropo che si nutre di classici greci e latini, dei filosofi che nei loro monologhi disquisivano sulle teorie delluniverso. Due donne regolano il suo sistema damore: Ludovica e Paola, la sua prediletta. Accade che una notte sogna una vita parallela in cui le due giovani incontrano un destino amaro e parallelo: Paola si ammala di SLA e Ludovica si lascia morire di inedia. Il Tenebroso, in realta un giovane timido e dolcissimo, narra il sogno in un libro, con dovizia di particolari e riflessioni sul tema dellamore, della morte e dellabbandono. Enzo Di Gregorio adotta una sorta di flusso di coscienza per riversare su carta i demoni e le meraviglie di un mondo bizzarro e sincronico. E quando il Lettore, direttamente chiamato in causa nel corso della narrazione, si convince di avere compreso il dramma esistenziale di Raul e parteggia con lui contro medici meschini, avvocati cinici e destino avverso ecco che si accorge di essere stato incantato da un uso sapiente ed elegante delle parole.Una storia in cui il tutto e il suo contrario sono sostenuti da una medesima dialettica, da una medesima dichiarazione di intenti. Labile e il confine tra sogno e realta. E un testamento spirituale puo dare inizio alla storia piuttosto che determinarne la conclusione. Perche per usare le parole di Arthur Rimbaud Sappiamo donare ogni giorno tutta intera la nostra vita.

In Rom begeht ein Mann Selbstmord, indem er sich in der Badewanne die Pulsadern aufschneidet. In San Francisco springt eine Frau von der Terrasse. Zwei dramatische Ereignisse, die scheinbar nichts miteinander zu tun haben. Als Betta in Rom versucht, die Scherben ihres Lebens aufzusammeln, steht auf einmal Mark aus San Francisco mit einer besturzenden Nachricht vor ihrer Tur: Die beiden Selbstmorde ihres Ehemanns und seiner Schwester haben eine Gemeinsamkeit. Hinter der verzweifelten Tat scheint sich jemand zu verbergen, der als eine Art Souffleur fungiert: Dionysos. Dieser spurt in den sozialen Netzwerken leicht beeinflussbare Personen auf, um sie dann auf einem Weg zu begleiten, der zum Tod fuhrt. Von der Polizei nicht ernst genommen, machen sich Betta und Mark mithilfe von Andrea, Suicide-Girl und genialer Hackerin, auf eigene Faust auf die Jagd nach Dionysos, indem sie den wenigen Spuren, die er hinterlie, kreuz und quer durch Europa folgen. Eine dunkle Macht streckt jedoch ihre Fuhler aus und lasst sie von Jagern zur Beute werden. Welche Interessen stecken hinter dem tragischen Tod zweier Menschen? Die Antwort auf diese Frage ist gleichermaen beunruhigend wie unglaublich. Es geht um etwas, das die Welt noch nicht bereit ist zu akzeptieren.PUBLISHER: TEKTIME

Eccolo Santo Marchese, non ha nulla da dire e non sappiamo a cosa stia pensando, come se questa storia non fosse la sua. E invece e proprio lui il fulcro attorno a cui ruotano le vicende surreali di personaggi cinici, egoisti, maldestri, cattivi, che lo trascinano a fondo senza lasciargli scampo. Mentre in Italia imperversa il fascismo lui e la vittima sacrificale del suo mondo di antieroi sgangherati: un padre usuraio, una madre oppressiva, un prete senza morale, un insegnante fin troppo premuroso, un disertore russo, una suora alcolizzata, una donna avida, un giocatore di pelota, un assassino psicopatico.

"SALOMÉ" has made the authors name a household word wherever the English language is not spoken. Few English plays have such a peculiar history. Written in French in 1892 it was in full rehearsal by Madame Bernhardt at the Palace Theatre when it was prohibited by the Censor. Oscar Wilde immediately announced his intention of changing his nationality, a characteristic jest, which was only taken seriously, oddly enough, in Ireland. The interference of the Censor has seldom been more popular or more heartily endorsed by English critics. On its publication in book form "Salome" was greeted by a chorus of ridicule, and it may be noted in passing that at least two of the more violent reviews were from the pens of unsuccessful dramatists, while all those whose French never went beyond Ollendorff were glad to find in that venerable school classic an unsuspected asset in their educationa handy missile with which to pelt "Salome" and its author.
