9780240806624: Script Analysis for Actors, Directors, and Designers

Synopsis

Script Analysis for Actors, Directors, and Designers applies directly to the experience of theatrical production; students will immediately be able to relate the concepts and procedures they learn to their artistic work. The author's procedural method is detailed and precise. The parts of a play are learned progressively, which fosters an understanding of the concept of artistic unity. Examples are clear and comprehensive. Actors, directors, and designers will benefit from end-of-chapter questions and summaries meant to stimulate their creative process as they engage in production work.

Review

"This book is a must-read for anyone interested in directing drama...I cannot praise this book highly enough...When I studied for my MA in theatre and film I struggled to unpick scripts and dramatic texts - if I'd read this book I would have had a far easier journey of discovery and a practical tool-kit to enable me to understand scripts and bring them to life on screen. The language is dense and quite academic, but the reader is rewarded with invaluable information." - Focus magazine
