Synopsis

Re: Direction is an extraordinary resource for practitioners and students on directing. It provides a collection of ground-breaking interviews, primary sources and essays on 20th century directing theories and practices around the world.

Helpfully organized into four key areas of the subject, the book explores:

  • theories of directing
  • the boundaries of the director's role
  • the limits of categorization
  • the history of the theatre and performance art

Exceptionally useful and thought-provoking introductory essays by editors Schneider and Cody guide you through the wealth of materials included here. Re: Direction is the kind of book anyone interested in theatre history should own, and which will prove an indispensable toolkit for a lifetime of study.
