To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It simply should not be. Night and day, from the first rehearsal to the hundredth performance, the director should dedicate himself to the utter obliteration of the 'my-part' actor. "The 'my-part' actor is the low creature who thinks of every scene in every play in terms of his own role. He sacrifices everything to his own precious opportunities. What makes it so hard to suppress him is the fact that he is for- ever being encouraged. Instead of being shot and fatally wounded by some discerning,... but irritable, playgoer, as likely as not he will be rapturously applauded for his sins. The papers next day may report that his was the only per- formance that 'stood out' Stood out, indeed, as if that were necessarily a compliment ! I re- member that the most conspicuous and warmly applauded performance in 'Sumurun' was an outrageously protruding figure that robbed of its proper values the more shy and reticent beau- ties of the other playing. // 'stood out' like a gaudy lithograph included by mistake in a port- folio of etchings.
