Math for Actors

by Emily C.A. Snyder

Math meets mayhem when studious Kate agrees to tutor Keith, an arrogant actor who's more interested in Kate than in calculus. He shows up late, he's still in costume, and he doesn't know or care what the angle of inclination is. Answering such burning questions as how many actors it takes to screw in a light bulb, Math for Actors explores the relationship between art and algebra, and finds a common denominator.

About the author

EMILY C. A. SNYDER has been inventing stories since they were old enough to babble, and writing them down since they were old enough to dictate. Snyder is a novelist, playwright, and academic whose work spans fantasy fiction, gothic satire, and classical theatre. They are the author of the Celtic-inspired "Twelve Kingdoms" novels, the Jane Austenesque "Nachtsturm Castle: A Gothic Austin Satire," and Shakespearean epic plays, including "Cupid and Psyche." Snyder champions underrepresented voices in classic literature, as well as a healthy sense of humour.
