Reviews

This book is very encouraging of actors wanting to sustain in the industry it reads as a huge hug and pat on the back actors, a book of warmth and encouragement whilst simultaneously being mindful to not ignore the realities of the industry. * Adelle Hulsmeier, Senior Lecturer for Performing Arts and Programme Leader for Screen Performance, University of Sunderland, UK *
