About Performing Arts
Books on performing arts cover a wide range of interests. This category covers biographies and autobiography as well as disciplines such as music books, acting books and dance books. We love having a glimpse into the worlds of the rich and famous, and there is no shortage of books that let us into the lives of actors such as Robin Williams and Carrie Fisher. And what about behind the scenes of famous movies? If you’ve always had burning questions about Godzilla, what about Godzilla on My Mind: Fifty Years of the King of Monsters by William M. Tsutsui? This book explores the cultural impact of Godzilla on the world. Even the much-loved Downton Abbey is represented in the performing arts book genre with Downton Abbey: Rules for Household Staff by Mr. Carson. There are many “how to” books in this genre, encompassing music, dance, playwriting and acting. Several books discuss the medium of performing arts, such as radio, plays and stage, television and big screen. Plays from Shakespeare and Oscar Wilde are available as are more modern theatre offerings, including ebooks of commentary on the future of theatre in America. Ebooks in performing arts will offer many additions to your reading list!

We love having a glimpse into the worlds of the rich and famous, and there is no shortage of books that let us into the lives of actors such as Robin Williams and Carrie Fisher. And what about behind the scenes of famous movies? If you’ve always had burning questions about Godzilla, what about Godzilla on My Mind: Fifty Years of the King of Monsters by William M. Tsutsui? This book explores the cultural impact of Godzilla on the world. Even the much-loved Downton Abbey is represented in the performing arts book genre with Downton Abbey: Rules for Household Staff by Mr. Carson. There are many “how to” books in this genre, encompassing music, dance, playwriting and acting. Several books discuss the medium of performing arts, such as radio, plays and stage, television and big screen. Plays from Shakespeare and Oscar Wilde are available as are more modern theatre offerings, including ebooks of commentary on the future of theatre in America. Ebooks in performing arts will offer many additions to your reading list!
