Take a peek inside the actors' studio AZ Daily Star, "Circle Mirror Transformation" Preview: No need to be insider to enjoy play focusing on accepting yourself Take a peek inside the actors' studio The play takes place in an acting class at a small community center in Vermont.

It's about accepting who you are." It's sort of a motley crew that has signed up for the class: a high schooler who longs to play Maria in "West Side Story"; a man struggling to get over a divorce; an actress who never made it in New York; and the husband of the woman teaching the class (at the urging of his wife, no doubt).
