'Useful, cheerful... Reading the encouraging, entertaining words of Dearman and Evans is rather like being present at an extended, in depth Q&A session. You can't help but learn a lot from virtual conversation with people who really know what they're talking about.' * The Stage * 'A must have for anyone in theatre training or even just with a keen interest in theatre... a good, easy read that allows you to go behind the scenes and see what it takes to become that person we see up on stage... you can't get much stagier than this!' * West End Wilma * 'A superb book for anyone thinking about starting out in this mad world of entertainment... definitely one to add to the library' * Musical Theatre Review * 'One of the best sources of advice for performers and people thinking about performing as a career I've seen... a down-to-earth book containing sage advice from a personal perspective... a useful resource for generations of performers to come. Highly recommended.' * Stage Status * 'An invaluable resource... peppered with interesting stories about life in the industry... an easily readable book which gives plenty of insight into the highs and lows of life as a musical theatre performer.' * Everything Theatre *
