And then, You Act: Making Art in an Unpredictable World, Vol. 1 Book

An insightful account of all the considerations directors must make before sending out actors to make art for them, Anne goes on a nearly metaphysical trip by categorizing these considerations based on Buddhist beliefs, quantum physics, Ancient Greek etymology and thankfully virtual reality. She never stays on any of these topics too long, always making room in her brief chapters to describe the actual journeys she took across the globe and the meetings with theatre-makers who inspire her. Her seven fundamental forces of theatrical magnetism works for part of my own research as I try to capture some of the alchemical elements mentioned throughout this book.
