Judy Garland on Judy Garland is the closest we will come to experiencing and exploring the legendrsquo;s planned autobiography. Collecting and presenting the most important Garland interviews and encounters that took place between 1935 and 1969; this work opens with her first radio appearance under contract with Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer; and concludes with her last known interview; one taped for Radio Denmark just months before her death. What makes this collection unique is that it places Judy in the role of storyteller. She wrote a number of essays for various publications and sat for countless print; radio; and television interviews. These and other autobiographical efforts she made are proof that Judy Garland wanted her story told in her own words. Finally; 45 years after her death; here it is.

Shakespeare and his palsBy Andrea TwainExcellent read for those who love Shakespeare AND for those who want to know more about Shakespeares contemporaries. Shakespeare was a mere mortal when he died; surrounded by contemporaries who were extremely talented. Jonson excelled at comedy; Marlowe at tragedy; some history; lots of gore. Some you may not have heard of; but all produced works worthy of praise heaped on Shakespeare. Shakespeare was exemplary in that he excelled in EVERYTHING--comedy; tragedy; history; long form poetry; sonnets...while each of these men specialized. This book will make you want to chase down Marlowes plays as well as others.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Very good description of the golden age of theatreBy A. CoutinhoWill and his pals could be another title for this interesting book. Centered in Sheakespere; this book presents an overview of the most prominent writers;actors and companies at that time; exploring the myriads of collaborations; intersections of strong collaborative work - the theatre. How it was managed; how plays were written and acted; how the audience reacted; all is touched. Certainly Shakespeare was the star; but rather the most brilliant and enduring star in a constellation of bright man.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
