Sam Mendes and Simon Russell Beale have forged one of the most
successful working partnerships in contemporary theatre history.
Across twenty years and eight productions their collaboration has
evolved, matured and keeps thriving through their work on stage;
six Shakespeare and two Chekhov plays form their common body of
work so far. Mark Leipacher's correspondence with Mendes and Beale
and his thorough research into archival material on their
collaborations, offers the reader a detailed account of the
productions and, uniquely, Mendes' and Beale's own observations on
their method of work and on the discoveries they made in each of
the plays. How do moments of magic on stage arise in the rehearsal
room? Catching the Light, full of anecdotes and gems of knowledge,
is an indispensable read for actors, directors, students and anyone
who loves the theatre. Features a foreword from Kevin Spacey,
Artistic Director of the Old Vic.
