Marquee moments: essays by theatre lovers

By Sprayberry, Phillip Kent

First published 2026

"MARQUEE MOMENTS - Essays by Theatre Lovers is a collection of 80 essays by 40 authors who share a deep love of theatre-capturing moments they find worthy of remembering and sharing. This anthology gathers those memorable moments and presents them in five sections: From the Start - first-time theatre and Broadway experiences From the Seat - perspectives from the audience From the Stage - the actor's point of view From the Staff - insights from those who make theatre happen From the Rest - reflections on lives lived in and around the theatre The authors of Marquee Moments are not Broadway headliners, trending director/choreographers, or social media celebrities. They are theatre people-actors, creatives, technicians, and theatregoers who love and sustain the art form. Some have had careers in theatre, but most are the unsung heroes who pull ropes backstage, chase props, sew hems. They are the 16-year-olds with sequined fingernails negotiating a power tool for the first time. They are the girl dads trading corporate suits for paint-splattered jeans on a Friday night.
