Journeys In The Night (Hardcover w/DVD)

Journeys In The Night. (Creating a New American Theatre with Circle in the Square: A Memoir). Applause Books. Hardcover with DVD. 418 pages. Published by Applause Books.

This is Theodore Manns account of his own and the Circles remarkable history. At times its difficult to tell where the two diverge, so integral to the company has he been. From Thornton Wilder to Al Pacino, it seems as if every great actor and playwright of the past fifty years has had his or her best work at Circle. As befits a story about theatre, it is at times comic and at times tragic.

If you ever wondered how Off-Broadway ever came to be (and how it ever managed to survive), this is the tale to read.

DVD BONUS: As a special bonus, An American Theatre Revolution includes a DVD of the 1977 CBS-TV Camera Three program
