For the first time ever, world-acclaimed solo performer Ronald Rand reveals how a solo performance is born, takes off, and can change the world.

Step inside Rand’s extraordinary two-hour transformation becoming 79-year-old theatre legendary director Harold Clurman in his celebrated solo play, “LET IT BE ART!” and discover an organic process how to create your own dynamic solo performance on stage using Stanislavski’s acting chart “The Method of Physical Actions.”

Join Rand as he ‘pulls the curtain aside’ on his two-hour transformation becoming Harold Clurman, the “Elder Statesman of the American Theatre” in his critically-acclaimed solo play, LET IT BE ART! and takes readers around the world into the extraordinary experiences that have occurred in 26 countries where he has performed including Malaysia, Sri Lanka, Zimbabwe, Uruguay, and Greece building ‘bridges of compassion and understanding.’

Within the book’s pages are over twenty inspiring interviews with renowned performers who have performed in solo plays including Christopher Plummer, Ben Vereen, Eve Ensler, Stephen Lang, Elizabeth van Dyke, Billy Crudup, Angelica Page, Olympia Dukakis, Marga Gomez, Adrienne Barbeau, Anita Hollander, Tony Lo Bianco, Laurence Luckinbill, Sabera Shaik, Spalding Gray, Jean-Claude van Itallie, and Julie Harris.
