Toast on Toast: Cautionary tales and candid advice | Steven Toast

1 post | 5 read

Toast on Toast is the must-have book for all budding actors - and non-actors too. In this part memoir, part 'how to act' manual, Steven Toast draws on his vast and varied experiences, providing the reader with an invaluable insight into his journey from school plays to RADA, and from 'It's a Right Royal Knockout' to the Colony Club. Along the way, he reveals the secrets of his success. He discloses how to brush up on and expand your technical and vocal skills, how to nail a professional voiceover, and how to deal with difficult work experience staff in a recording studio. He also reveals the dangers of typecasting, describes the often ruthless struggle for 'top billing', and shares many awesome nuggets of advice. The end result is a book that will inspire and educate anyone who wants to tread the floorboards. It will also inform (and entertain) anybody who simply wants to discover what a jobbing actor's life is actually like.

Toast on Toast: Cautionary tales and candid advice | Steven Toast

pan

The show Toast of London is one of my favorites; I quote it all the time (“I can hear you, Clem Fandango!”). But this book made me realize that I just want to see Toast in funny situations, I do not want to actually hang out with him. He hits a single note that works on the show because of interactions with other characters. That is largely missing here. It‘s too bad, really, because author Matt Berry is an incredibly creative and talented fellow.
