Places, Please, Act One

A collection of Warren Kliewer's poems about acting and the life of theater professionals.From "introduction" by Warren Kliewer: "These poems have been written perhaps in honor of, but more likely in comradeship with, actors, directors, designers, technicians, and yes even producers. The final product of their labors - that which patrons buy tickets to see and critics get free tickets to grumble about - is not my subject. Rather, it's the work itself leading to the results. My subject is the private life of a public art form. These poems come from the ever-changing and inconclusive process."
