Toast on Toast - Steven Toast - Bog - Canongate Books - Plusbog.dk

Toast on Toast is the must-have book for all budding actors - and non-actors too. In this part memoir, part ''how to act'' manual, Steven Toast draws on his vast and varied experiences, providing the reader with an invaluable insight into his journey from school plays to RADA, and from ''It''s a Right Royal Knockout'' to the Colony Club. Along the way, he reveals the secrets of his success. He discloses how to brush up on and expand your technical and vocal skills, how to nail a professional voiceover, and how to deal with difficult work experience staff in a recording studio. He also reveals the dangers of typecasting, describes the often ruthless struggle for ''top billing'', and shares many awesome nuggets of advice. The end result is a book that will inspire and educate anyone who wants to tread the floorboards. It will also inform (and entertain) anybody who simply wants to discover what a jobbing actor''s life is actually like.

My Lady Parts - Doon Mackichan - Bog - Canongate Books - Plusbog.dk

My Lady Parts - Doon Mackichan - Bog - Canongate Books - Plusbog.dk

Doon Mackichan is best known for her comedy characters in the hugely popular Brass Eye , Smack the Pony and Toast of London - but throughout her career there are parts she''s refused to take and stereotypes she''s continually defied. The Feisty Feminist. The Hot Lesbian. The Desperate Cougar. In My Lady Parts , Doon shares her experience on stage, screen and in real life, examining how our culture still expects women to adhere to certain stereotypes - and punishes those who don''t. Doon looks at the stories we are telling and asks: what do these roles we give women tell us about their value in the society we live in? How do we hold our heads up without fear and say no to those that objectify us? The Deranged Mother. The Stupid Tart. The Hag. This is a courageous, vulnerable and empowering account of being a woman in an industry that has been exposed for its deep-rooted sexism. It is, above all, a call to reflect on - and radically rework - the implications such attitudes have for future generations.
