In Central and Flexible Staging, Walden P. Boyle takes readers on a journey through the evolution of modern theater design, challenging the rigid traditions of proscenium stages. Inspired by innovative thinkers like Robert Edmond Jones and European pioneers such as Copeau, Boyle delves into the world of central staging and theater-in-the-round. With a nod to historical milestones-including T. Earl Pardoe's early experiments at Brigham Young University and Margo Jones's influential work in Dallas-Boyle explains how this movement has grown from an avant-garde concept to a familiar staging format in community theaters across the country. However, Boyle warns of the limitations of the arena theater, which can become as confining as the traditional proscenium if not handled flexibly. He advocates for a "flexible theater"-a dynamic space that can adapt to various forms of staging. Drawing on examples from UCLA's drama department and the Playbox in Pasadena, he provides practical insights into how small producing groups can create their own affordable, versatile theaters. Through detailed instructions, diagrams, and examples, Boyle offers a compelling argument for the flexible theater's ability to expand creative possibilities while avoiding the pitfalls of rigid, permanent structures. This essential guide offers inspiration and practical advice for theater groups seeking to push the boundaries of traditional stage design.
