Product Information
Aimed at every director, from the beginner to the most experienced, this guide is full of information to help make their direction more effective. Following a general overview of the director's role, the guide focuses on how the director shapes and steers a production - from preproduction meetings to curtain calls. Veteran directors and actors in community, regional and academic theatre offer their expertise on a range of topics including selecting a suitable piece, things to look out for in auditions, criticizing effectively, the basis of directing a musical, staging a big show with a small cast, blocking tips and managing rehearsing schedules. Directors may be an unseen presence in stage productions, but their influence is everywhere to be seen - and heard. This guide offers support to directors charged with unlocking the full potential of their productions.Product Identifiers
