A #1 bestseller on Amazon actors and auditioning list! Longlisted for the 2022 Theatre Book prize!
Unlike any actor's 'memoir' you've read before, this hilarious, luvvie-free, behind-the-scenes, no-holds-barred account of Millson's first decade in the second oldest profession takes you through the impossible slogs of auditions, the endless disappointments, the fragile successes, and ultimately into the bones of what really makes an actor. the final ingredient is a love affair with the work itself. Acting as an obsession, as a religion, as a distraction, as a solace, and often as hell."IT'S THE PROPER STORY OF AN ACTOR'S LIFE - NOT THE CHAMPAGNE AND AIR KISSES, BUT THE GRAFT, THE DOUBT, THE DEBT, AND SOMETIMES, JUST SOMETIMES, THE BLISS."
