The Curtain Call book is packed with exclusive photographs and intimate interviews from a unique backstage perspective. Photographer Matt Humphrey and Actor John Schwab were granted unprecedented access to the backstage life of over 50 productions; this beautiful book is a record of an epic year from the most impressive productions of the year.
Sixty four plays, hundreds of photos, a year in London stages. A beautiful memoir of the -few- shows I've watched, a great way to discover new plays and playwrights, Curtain Call offers an insightful glimpse on the world of theatre, the hard collaborative work a play demands and it even manages through the series of backstage photos to capture the thrill of being in the audience. It left me craving for more. A must have for any theatre lover.
