Publisher's Synopsis
ÊMore Power to YouÊ is acting guru Robert Cohen's follow-up act to his now legendary ÊActing PowerÊ. Now ÊMore Power to YouÊ brings together Cohen's most important writing on performance plays and productions. Among the diverse subjects the reader will learn about are that Shakespeare's actors cried real tears (and had their methods on how to make the tears flow); that Hamlet was sixteen; what that secret is that British actors have for running off with all the American stage awards and why kidnapped heiress Patty Hearst robbed that bank (and what that has to do with a book on theatre!).
