About the Book

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to tech. Around you, a company of fourteen is engaged in a very peculiar -- and particularly imposible -- task of making a new play. You'll have a seat next to the sound designer as he mixes cues. You'll eavesdrop on backstage gossip as it happens over headset. You'll watch the director struggle to contain the uncontainable. Anne Washburn (Mr. Burns) took notes during her tech rehersals over the years. 10 out of 12 is a wry and absorbing look at how work forms us and deforms us."-- Back cover.
