Industry reviews
"Some good gossip, a few great parties (one from dusk till dawn for Hume Cronyn and Jessica Tandy), lots of intelligent observations about acting and the stage: a treat for fans of theater autobiography."
Kirkus Reviews  (08/15/2001)

"A cross between an autobiography and a primer for anyone entering the theater or who enjoys attending it, this theatrical memoir is made singular by its author's common sense, modesty and sharp powers of observation and articulation."
Publishers Weekly  (08/20/2001)

"...Caldwell's special blend of tough-mindedness and warmheartedness helps explain why this book is so appealing. She's almost as worth reading on the page as seeing on the stage and she must, of course, give us the sequel to I WILL BE CLEOPATRA as soon as the claims of the theater permit."
New York Times Book Review - Benedict Nightingale (10/21/2001)

"[T]he four-time Tony Award winner describes her Depression-era childhood and apprenticeship in crisp and telling fashion...Because Caldwell tells it so freshly, I WILL BE CLEOPATRA exerts a distinctive charm as the curtain rises in Melbourne...Caldwell delivers her material in print as she does onstage, with high- impact economy and great timing. The book, composed for the Norton Lecture series, feels primed for performance...Caldwell is pointed and succinct on what contributes to the 'rigorous mental business' of acting."
San Francisco Chronicle Book Review - Steven Winn (12/16/2001)

"Caldwell's book has a warmth and charm; it is filled with compassion and a genuine liking for the people and milieu of the theater--the stage managers, designers, landladies, the digs--and she offers up deft analyses of plays and performances she has watched from the wings, or from the audience."
Times Literary Supplement  (03/15/2002)
