First ancient Greek guys put on masks and acted out top tales. Next Shakespeare and his pals had some huge hits. Now the world's a stage to all sorts - from plays with no words to actors with no clothes! In this behind-the-scenes guide you'll meet an actress who slept in a coffin, a playwrite who lost the plot, and a director with all the talent of a corridor. You'll turn the spotlight on stage fights, fake props and special effects, and find out if you've got what it takes to write a smash-hit play or be a mega-stage star.
