'What Stephen Jeffreys doesn't know about playwriting isn't worth knowing' Stephen Daldry 'Stephen Jeffreys is as important a teacher as he is brilliant a writer Without him, I wouldn't have been able to write the plays that I have written' Simon Stephens 'An incredibly useful writing helpmeet. As witty and humane as its author' Emma Thompson 'What Stephen taught me has shaped my mind and I have shared this with countless writers' Kwame Kwei-Armah 'Stephen was a true mentor I still draw upon much of what he taught me today' Abi Morgan 'Like a bird in the air, Stephen was utterly in his element as a teacher. We sat spellbound' Phyllida Lloyd 'I had the great pleasure of working with Stephen on his play The Libertine. Would that all playwrights had his openness, his talent, his hard-headedness, his experience, his enthusiasm, his audacity, his complexity, and perhaps best of all his talent and interest in eliciting the best in others' John Malkovich 'Stephen's wit was legendary. "Wit": from the proto-Indo-European word "weid" meaning "to see"/"to know". Stephen "saw" clearly and "knew" profoundly; which is why we sought out the clarity of his words and learned deeply from his laughter' Simon McBurney 'Stephen was more than just a great bloke whose easy laugh set a room alight; he was a genuine geek, an obsessive about the craft of writing As I read, I was reminded again of his deep connection to plays and how they work. There are gems in here, there is guidance, there is the spirit of Stephen Jeffreys' April De Angelis. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…
