VERY excited for Seldes!!
"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

Kudos to each and every one of them. Seldes is an actor with a vast and wide-ranging body of work (and a joy to work with) and I'm so pleased that that is being recognized. I've done many a Broadway Bares with Viola, and his dedication to the cause is incredible. I love that DHP has lent his fame, time and energy to so many causes.
Ah, but the little-known B H Barry. A man who truly believes in safety first when it comes to staging realistic fight scenes live on stage, so much harder to do than on film, because you don't have the benefit of editing. He makes it look easy, though it takes years of work. I am so very pleased he's being recognized for that. Also, one hell of a racontuer and a truly funny, sweet man.
