Summary

This volume includes the best of John Lahr's 'New Yorker' profiles and reviews, in which he makes his expertise and his exhilaration palpable. From modern greats, like Arthur Miller, Harold Pinter, David Mamet, Tony Kushner and August Wilson, to the work of directors like Nicholas Hytner, Ingmar Bergman and Shakespeare himself, the depth of Lahr's understanding is extraordinary. He brings the reader up-close and personal to the artists and their art so that, whether you are a regular theatre-goer or just starting out, his book delights as both a celebration and a guide.
