Jamie Sage has quite an overactive imagination, and it causes problems. When daydreaming becomes a habit and nothing seems real anymore, her father has no choice but to call in a professional--a professional, one might add, that doesnt specialize in the psychological area that her father had thought. When Jamie is poisoned by the specialist and sent into an induced coma, her brain becomes more active than ever before. Dreams become reality and she cant tell one from the other. When she encounters Aaron Jameson and Emily Violeta, she joins them on an adventure that exceeds any that she could imagine. Ridden with incredulity she fights her way through her comatose state, asleep on the outside but alive on the inside. As her strength saps and her bravery is tried, she turns to the one hope that can get her through the dreams--that she will wake up eventually, alive and well.

This book is a conversation about acting with noted actor, director and educator Cynthia Henderson. Cynthia takes the reader on a journey to the heart of acting, sharing techniques and exercises she has developed over a lifetime of personal and professional exploration. Drawing from the diverse landscape of what it means to be human, Cynthia creates a space to meet the actor where they are. It is a profound and often humorous guide that is accessible for the beginning actor while inviting the seasoned professional to dive deeper. Her unique insights into actor training form the cornerstone for compelling character development and offer insight into how theatre can be a catalyst for social change. Cynthia’s concepts are cutting edge actor training. More than an acting book, this book is an intimate look at the exploration of the human condition and why we do what we do.
