The facts of an actor's life are often far stranger than any fiction they portray. The joy in reading this book comes from the realization that we are all constantly auditioning for something - and we are all the better for it - win or lose. - Frank Langella An impressive piece of work. An actor for many years, Louis' depth of understanding of what some people call the actor's 'nightmare,' the audition process, shines through every story. A kaleidoscopic book that may make you laugh and cry. - Blythe Danner
