Cast of moss hart autobiography

Act One: An Autobiography

May 21,

“Stage-struck”: From poverty to Broadway (Bronx/Brooklyn, NY, to ): Beautifully written storytelling that stayed on the bestseller list over forty weeks when first published in – a book with devotees in and out of the theatrical world – is too good for Enchanted Prose to pass up because it’s not fiction. Deeply felt books like this one seem to take on a life of their own, much like Moss Hart said a play has “its own peculiar and separate life.” And like playwriting, blogging does not come with absolute rules. For as much as Moss Hart’s can’t-put-it-down storytelling memoir, Act One, renders a detailed, behind-the-scenes account of a famous playwright’s “lifelong intoxication with the theatre” (he wrote The Man Who Came to Dinner, You Can’t Take it with You, A Star is Born; he directed My Fair Lady, Camelot), it also offers what enchanted fiction ought to do: stir the heart and take us inside the human condition. For those who don’t read enough memoirs, Moss Hart’s elegant prose might change that. Yes, it’s that good.

This new edition (Act One has never gone out of print) coincides with the Lincoln Center’s production currently playin
