Publisher's Synopsis
If you had the chance, would you be interested in meeting British theatre director Sir John Gielgud and actor Jason Robards? Would you like to have been in Vieques, Puerto Rico with director Peter Brook making the film Lord of the Flies? Would you enjoy being at the first ever performance of the musical My Fair Lady? Would you like to be the co-producer of a Broadway play directed by the legendary George Abbott? Perhaps you would enjoy going to London once or twice a year to see new plays and classics at the National Theatre, the Royal Shakespeare Company or in the West End. Maybe you would find it interesting to journey to Tokyo, Japan to enjoy the avant-garde theatre there or the more traditional Noh, Kabuki or Bunraku performances.
If your taste is more personal you might prefer a one-on-one interview with actresses Colleen Dewhurst, Claire Bloom, Julie Harris, or Gwen Verdon, or with playwrights Arthur Miller, Edward Albee, Tennessee Williams, or August Wilson. You could do all this and more if you join Ed Wilson in the lively, personal journey he takes in his new memoir Magic Time. Enjoy the moments, relive the excitement-they are all there in this entertaining, provocative book.
