  For the first time, the choreographer of Michael Jackson, Madonna, Björk, and many others reveals stage stories through his extraordinary journey. 
   
   
   
  Vincent Paterson began his professional dancing career late in life. It would take an exceptional turn when he became one of the lead dancers in Michael Jackson's Beat It music video. Through hard work, he rises to the rank of choreographer and director for the world's greatest singers, but also for cinema and musical comedy. 
   
   
   
  He tells with humility the fascinating universe of film sets, the rehearsal sessions where he had to orchestrate and synchronize dozens of dancers, life backstage where it is sometimes necessary to manage a few whims of the stars, his successes and his disappointments. It is a dive into the heart of the world of dance.

  As Serious As Cancer

  DJ Semtex

  “It’s hard to believe I’m doing this,” DJ Semtex opens his book. “I never considered for one moment that I would be writing about an experience like this.” As an acclaimed DJ, producer and radio host, he spent years telling other people’s stories, now it’s time to tell his. As Serious as Cancer is an unflinching portrait of the man behind the decks and his unexpected face-off with the C-word.  
  “All I know is I’ve never faced anything as serious as cancer before.” - DJ Semtex 
  “I got a question as serious as cancer,” Rakim raps on his iconic 1987 album Paid in Full. Semtex leans on the popularised hip hop trope in his tell-all: When you’ve got everything going for you, what do you do when one word turns your whole world upside down? The book charts the four-month period in early 2023 from a sudden concerning discovery to his diagnosis with kidney cancer, treatment and finally recovery. Semtex takes us on this journey with a gut-wrenching honesty and searing specificity that will resonate with anyone whose life has been touched by the disease and move even those who have not been personally affected by it. 
  Semtex reflects on his past, family, career, the NHS that saved his life and hip hop’s relationship with cancer. But above all, As Serious as Cancer is an exploration of the self. Vulnerable, insightful and compelling, Semtex ponders finding yourself face-to-face with your own mortality – “The darkest cloud over a life that I had worked so hard to build and still many more dreams to pursue.” He details the mental anguish and physical toll of figuring your way out of a health crisis; Navigating your life’s work and treatment – and how ultimately passion is the greatest medicine for despair. At its core, As Serious as Cancer is about resilience and the human spirit. “I had no intention of giving up,” he writes, “I wasn’t ready to die, I was ready to live."

  An Actor's Alphabet - An A to Z...

  In this candid and empowering A to Z of being an actor, Julie Hesmondhalgh draws on her decades of experience on stage and screen – including in massively popular television shows such as Broadchurch, Happy Valley and Coronation Street – to lift the lid on the realities of life in today's industry, and show you how to navigate it.
  She shares practical advice on preparing for roles (don't be afraid of looking like a dick), managing the ups and downs of your career (and how to be out of work without losing your mind), dealing with failure (and success), not constantly comparing yourself to others (bloody hard, but try), looking after your mental health, and the power of knowing when to say 'no'.
  Passionate about the arts, she makes a compelling case for their importance to society, but also calls out the industry on where it continues to fall short – including a clear-eyed assessment of what needs to change to make it safer and healthier, more accessible and inclusive.
  Written with refreshing honesty and self-deprecating humour, An Actor's Alphabet is a book for anyone who dreams of becoming an actor, wants to be a better one, or just wants to learn what being one is really like.
  'Endearingly honest, funny and eye-opening. I loved it!' Francesca Martinez
  'Like its author, this book is brimming with wisdom, intelligence, empathy and humanity... An absolute must!' Maxine Peake
  'This is the best book on acting and being an actor I've read… Julie Hesmondhalgh is the mentor/best friend/guide we all need in these troubled times' Paul Chahidi
  'A must-read, whether you've been on the artist's journey for years or are just starting out' Shobna Gulati
  'This book is bold, brash, sincere and angry. It regrets nothing and questions everything… Treasure it like we should treasure Julie' Jack Thorne
  'A generous gift to actors, full of honesty, hope and wit. There is loads of tangible advice, not just for acting but for life' Anna Jordan
  'Julie's book is honest, challenging and helpful. A great read' Andy Nyman

  Natural Processes in Textile Art...

  More and more textile artists are using natural processes in their work, from dyeing with rust to working with found and scavenged items, and this book is the first to bring these increasingly popular techniques together. It promotes a way of working creatively with what is close at hand, whether gathered on walks by the seashore or collected in your garden, and working in tune with natural processes, bringing the rhythms and unpredictability of nature into your work.
  Examples of this type of working include rust dyeing embroidered fabric to give it a natural patina, dyeing with garden fruits or seaweed, weaving with pieces of beachcombed fibre and printing with found objects. In all of this work nature is directly harnessed to make its mark.
  The book is illustrated with the finest examples of contemporary embroidery and textile-art work using nature, by artists whose practice is tied up with their experience of and respect for the natural environment, often capturing a very strong sense of place and a feeling of calmness and contemplation.
