About the book

What is the role of a director? Tyrannical dictator or creative persuader? Why does the audience matter when interpreting a play? How do you get the best out of actors? This book answers these questions and offers practical guidance on the crucial moments of creating a stage production, including budgeting, auditions, rehearsals, opening night, and beyond. From knotty discussions on Shakespeare, to when to call a coffee break, all aspects of the director's art are examined.
