DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis definitive history brings Chicago’s celebrated theater and comedy scenes to life with stories from some of its biggest stars spanning sixty-five years. Chicago is a bona fide theater town, bursting with vitality that thrills local fans and produces generation after generation of world-renowned actors, directors, playwrights, and designers. Now Mark Larson shares the rich theatrical history of Chicago through first-person accounts from the people who made it. Drawing from more than three hundred interviews, Larson weaves a narrative that expresses the spirit of Chicago’s ensemble ethos: the voices of celebrities such as Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Ed Asner, George Wendt, Michael Shannon, and Tracy Letts comingle with stories from designers, composers, and others who have played a crucial role in making Chicago theater so powerful, influential, and unique. Among many other topics, this book explores the early days of the fabled Compass Players and the legendary Second City in the ‘50s and ‘60s; the rise of acclaimed ensembles like Steppenwolf in the ‘70s; the explosion of storefront and neighborhood companies in the ‘80s; and the enduring global influence of the city as the center of improv training and performance.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAn international agency, COSMOS, is in charge of space exploration in the not very distant future. Odd forms of life have been discovered on Mars, Venus, and Jupiter; there may be a life form on Mercury; and finally something utterly mystifying is discovered on the moon. Three astronauts land and examine an installation that all three perceive as radically different - one sees a heap of gold, one a fort bristling with guns, one a space platform and space craft. They return to Earth with some crystals picked up at the mystery site. All three soon produce children - the moon children, gifted, precocious, and seemingly damned by the crystals their fathers had handled. Two are eerily beautiful, the third a grotesque monster. And the three soon discover that they are Earth's hope for survival, as interplanetary invasion brings overwhelming alien forces to bear on mankind.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKBeing human in the 21st century is no easy task and being a functional human is an even harder task. Hiraeth is not a work of fiction but rather deals with the everyday battles that we fight in the silence of our own minds and our quest for a home. Hiraeth was written for the ones who feel like they don’t belong, the ones who don’t fit in, and for the lost and disoriented among us who long - not for a home made of four walls but one made of safety and warmth. From works that deal with the questions and dilemmas of artists and creators to observational pieces on urban life and society as the poet sees it, the collection has a piece that will appeal to anyone who is longing for a connection. Feminist pieces which will strike a chord with anyone who has faced discrimination or abuse because of their gender or identity are part of the collection which also strongly deals with issues of mental health, mostly pulled from the poet's own life and experiences. The seemingly eclectic collection is tied together by the universal longing and the search for home, the emotion behind the name - Hiraeth.
