A new edition of the classic book for actors starting their careers, with new material

Few actors have ever been more eloquent, more honest, or more entertaining about their life and their profession than Simon Callow, one of the finest actors of his time and increasingly one of the most admired writers about the theater.

Beginning with the letter to Laurence Olivier that produced his first theatrical job to his triumph as Mozart in the original production of Amadeus, Callow takes us with him on his progress through England's rich and demanding theater: his training at London's famed Drama Centre, his grim and glorious apprenticeship in the provincial theater, his breakthrough at the Joint Stock Company, and then success at Olivier's National Theatre are among the way stations.

Callow provides a guide not only to the actor's profession but also to the intricacies of his art, from unemployment--"the primeval slime from which all actors emerge and to which, inevitably, they return"--to the last night of a long run.

That it will work on a Stil weedeater
Style: 9" 2T Cutting Blade
The edger connected to my Stil weed eater and worked great. I would recommend it to anyone.

Cut edges like a pro
Style: 9" 2T Cutting Blade
Better, much better than the OEM yellow and black brand. This has an all metal guard and the blade does not bind when it comes into contact with concrete. I have used it all summer for edging two commercial properties and my own lawn, it’s still turning and cutting with ease. Being all metal adds weight but the trade off over fragile plastic is worth the durability.

OK for light duty use only
Style: 9" 2T Cutting Blade
Not very strong or robust. Does fit my power head properly. Only recommend it for occasional, light duty use.

These work for the Worx trimmer WG928
Size: 16 Line Spools+4 Caps, Size: 16 Line Spools+4 Caps
Recently purchased the Work String trimmer and blower bundle. I found these and ordered them in hopes they were the right ones. They fit and work perfectly. Super easy to install. Pop out the old one and pop in the new. The string is pretty durable and thick. I love the idea of pre loaded spools. It got so annoying having to rewind the string on the spool every time I ran out. Price is fair and worth it. Highly recommend these if you have the same trimmer.
