This is a collection of three history plays; each displaying the sparkling muscularity of language that marks Berkoff out as one of the foremost wordsmiths in the English language. Set in thirteenth-century England; Ritual in Blood looks at the persecution of the Jews. Messiah begins with the image of Christ on the cross and pits His humanity and transcendent goodness against the evil of those who would kill Him. Finally; Berkoff offers a sharp and accessible adaptation of Sophocless Oedipus tragedy.

Having attended just about every cattle call in Los Angeles competing with hundreds in lines; moving from intern to intern at the ring of a bell; and not knowing what to say in 30 seconds; I decided it was time to learn from someone who knows the inside to the Hollywood film industry. The Perfect Pitch is not just entertaining and fun to read but gives you all the information you need to pitch your script that you just cant get anywhere else in Hollywood. Since reading The Perfect Pitch; I have joined Kens workshop and come to know Ken not just as a professional and professor in the art of pitching scripts but as a mentor personally involved with the success of his students and get their scripts polished and in the hands of producers. And Yes! My scripts have gone in the hands of producers because of Ken and his Perfect Pitch. I highly recommend reading The Perfect Pitch and join his workshop if you want to take your screenwriting career in the right direction.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Great advice!
