Description: "More Power to You brings together Cohen's most important writing on both plays and playing.".

"Cohen's readers should find some surprises in these pages: how Shakespeare's actors managed to cry real tears on stage, why acting students hate acting theory (but can profit from it), why some of today's (and a few of yesterday's) dramatists have created a new syntax based on speaking rather than writing, why British actors run off with American stage acting awards (and how you can too), and why kidnapped heiress Patty Hearst robbed that bank (and what that has to do with a book on theatre).

You will also be led into some of the theatre's greatest conundrums: how old is Hamlet, who is Godot, and why do most of drama's doctors in spite of themselves fail to cure their patients. Cohen's deductions and surmises, based on his forty-year history as acting teacher, play director and drama critic, will be sure to provoke discussion on these and many other issues."--BOOK JACKET.
