Rating:  Summary: The real deal Review: The Theatrical Juggernaut is a book that needs to be in the hands of all actors, all artist for that matter, who want to build a successful and fruitful career in the arts. In a no-nonsense, butt-kicking, yet refreshingly encouraging style, Monroe Mann explains the importance of being more than an artist-that becoming a well informed and competent businessman/woman is absolutely necessary. Warning: You cannot read this book without realizing that your career is in your own hands and yours alone and that your hard work is what will make or break it. Period. This book drops the responsibility for your career right in your own lap-it leaves you with no possible excuses for "failure". The Theatrical Juggernaut is about how business sense, hard work and a good attitude toward the process are the building blocks for success-not luck or talent alone. I believe this book should be given to every student of the arts wishing to come to New York and "make it". It explains the difference between hoping your career will happen and making it happen. It's a gift of a book!
Rating:  Summary: Why 99% of aspiring actors never even get noticed Review: The Theatrical Juggernaut: The Psyche Of The Star by Monroe Mann (founder and president of Unstoppable Actors) is a practical, straightforward, no-nonsense book on the subject of pursing acting as a career. Rather than exhaustively address such standard matters as finding good headshots, creating a monologue, or getting an agent, it focuses intensely on why 99% of aspiring actors never even get noticed, and why the overwhelming majority of aspiring performers are in the wrong line of work. As for the few who are in the right line suited to their talents, The Theatrical Juggernaut explains how the need for an industry "break" to achieve success is a myth, and why everything rests squarely on one's own shoulders. An absolute "must" for anyone seriously considering or pursuing a career in acting.
Rating:  Summary: It's FABULOUS! It's MORE than fabulous!! Review: This book is a true inspiration. It is TRUTH, EMPOWERMENT, and ADRENALINE all in one, and it keeps your momentum going, which we all need from time to time. It gives you "tangible" information to help you move your career along. EVERY actor (every PERSON) MUST read this book! I'm going to read it again, and again, and again....
Rating:  Summary: A MUST!! Review: this book is FABULOUS and for anyone out there who is struggling, who is barely making it, or who is success beyond imagination-- you must have this book- there are some wonderful ideas/hints that have really helped me-- i am ready to get out there and make my dream come true!! "Romp On!!"
Rating:  Summary: The Actor's version of UNLIMITED POWER Review: This book should be required reading for anyone thinking of making acting a CAREER, not a hobby. The odds against a successful acting career are tantamount to an Immoveable Object, and they must be overcome with UNSTOPPABLE Force. This book will either spur you to succeed or save you thousands of dollars in wasted time and energy. Some of its precepts are slightly controversial, but most of the material is solid, helpful and encouraging...and the quote seciton and bibliography is worth the price alone.
Rating:  Summary: A must read for all actors!!! Review: This guy is one of the best. This book is a must read for any performing artist! Even if you don't have an interest in the arts, this book can motivate you to reach your dreams. Monroe Mann is the "Tony Robbins" for the new generation! GET THIS BOOK IF YOU ARE A SERIOUS ACTOR!!!!
Rating:  Summary: Be prepared--This book will change your attitude and LIFE! Review: To everyone who doubts what Monroe says in this book, get ready to eat dirt because YOU will be left behind and be unemployed. Monroe has accomplished more in a few years than most "actors" who have been "in the business" for decades. What he says is bare-bones, no-nonsense, NO EXCUSES-to the point truth about making a career in show BUSINESS and that is the point-It's all about business, yet most actors have no business sense - hence the high rate of pessimism, bitterness, and unemployment. ...There are massive amounts of information and motivation in this book. It may be just what you need to jumpstart your attitude and career. That's what I needed and now my future is a blaze of hope and promise! The same can be true for you. HOOHA!
Rating:  Summary: A must read for those looking to succeed Review: What Monroe Mann has provided with "The Theatrical Juggernaut", is the how to manual for those who want to control their careers, written by one who is. The majority of actors out there, and people in general for that matter, tend to wait for their careers, their lives, to happen to them. Many drift about halfheartedly and wait for the currents of fate to change. They fail to see that in order to succeed you cannot hide behind excuses and sidestep personal responsibility. Monroe Mann teaches you how to demand this responsibility, how to take control of your career and place that weight squarely on your own shoulders. In doing so you become driven with purpose and find that each step taken towards your goal resounds with self-empowerment. If you are in any way serious about your career reading this book is one decision you cannot afford not to make. It is after all your career.
Rating:  Summary: THE BASIC TOOL FOR GETTING WHERE YOU WANT TO BE Review: When I read this book, it took me by surprise because it takes control from the very beginning to the end. Get off your butt and MAKE IT HAPPEN are believe it or not extremely powerful words. Only you the individual are in control of your own destiny. Do you wait for things to happen? Or do you get off your butt and do it! It teaches you how to get on that path to get to wherever you need to go. Whether it's in entertainment or business. Whatever the case it gets you in the mind frame to come to the realization that you need to make what your doing a business and to think like a business man and conduct your business accordingly. There are only two types of people in this world the people who failed and the people who won. I want to be a winner don't you?
