You look otherworldly. Like all my girls. This will make you a queen. Like years ago and people wore clothes like weapons; like weapons against poor people; because even is you were hungry how could you raise your fist against what looked like a god? But I can make things that are weapons against day to day stuff.A girl has watched McQueens Mayfair house for eleven consecutive days. Tonight; she climbs down from her watching tree and breaks into his house; to steal a dress; to become someone special. He catches her; but; instead of calling the police; they embark together on a journey through London and into his heart. The play captures the fairy-story landscape of McQueens mind - the landscape seen in his immortal shows - where; with a dress; an urchin can become an Amazon and where beauty might just help us survive the night. McQueen is a journey into the visionary imagination and dark dream world of Alexander McQueen; fashions greatest contemporary artist.James Phillipss play received its world premiere at St James Theatre; London; on 12 May 2015.

Mortalizes the ImmortalBy Thor VaderAfter having been tortured by actors discussing his approach to acting; I finally decided I wanted to learn about the man. Wow!This book is extremely interesting to read as it is a series of letters and essays from Stanislavski to his contemporaries. It was unbelievably humorous to listen to his discussion of Chekhov and imagine trying to conduct rehearsals with him sitting there watching.This book is broken into 5 major sections with different themes of Stanislavskis life explored in each one. Thespians will find his words inspiring; historians will find his words enlightening; and a normal person will find themselves better informed of the world of theater and what goes into preparing.I highly recommend this book.
