This was a fun, fast-paced read. I nearly didn't get it from the library because I thought it sounded too similar to All’s Well, however they're totally different. I enjoyed the Gothic vibes of the theatre world but overall I just found it a bit too predictable, the characters a bit too one-dimensional and
there was opportunity to go even weirder with the actor superstitions and creepy shit!
