Produktbeschreibung
An accessible guide to the theatre directing process of text-based theatre, from the choice of the play through to an encounter with an audience. Moving from how to choose a play to the opening night, A Beginner's Guide to Directing Theatre takes the reader, via a step-by-step approach, through various techniques, practitioners, methodologies and exercises that could be applied to text-based theatre. Through doing so, the reader comes to understand:- The differences between directing (the approach) and the director (the role), how that crosses over and ways to navigate this- A range of practices, methodologies and techniques for the differing and diverse styles, genres, playwrights and movements. i.e. the 'what' of directing- How to create inclusive, safe and diverse practices of casting and rehearsal methodsBy not providing one single methodology, but introducing readers to various methods, the author garners an understanding of how different plays, genres, styles and movements require their own approaches to reach opening night. Whilst not concentrating on devised or non-text based theatre, the book makes explicit how devising, experiential and improvisatory techniques can be embraced to inform the types of methodologies a director may embrace whilst approaching text-based work. From here, readers will be able to know which practitioners and directing methodologies they may wish to employ and will understand where to head next.
