Interesting Interviews with Playwrights, August 9, 2004
This review is from: The Playwright's Art: Conversations with Contemporary American Dramatists (Paperback)
I really enjoyed reading this book. It was very interesting to read the Q&A's with some of Americas greatest playwrights. I especially enjoyed the interviews with Edward Albee, Neil Simon and Wendy Wasserstein.
These playwrights answered a variety of questions. Everything from working with actors and directors, to how to handle the critics. Even giving background on how these playwrights got into writing in the first place. There are a variety of topics covered.
A very informative book for anyone interested in the art and business of writing plays. You will learn directly from the playwrights experiences and stories.
