"Innovation & Digital Theatremaking introduces a blueprint for how to think differently about Theatre, how to respond creatively in uncertainty, and wield whatever resources are available to create new work in new ways. In 2020, the Covid-19 Pandemic had a colossal impact on theatre across the world. At a time when even the wealthiest and best-supported theatre companies in the world ceased all operations and shuttered their stages, the theatre company The Show Must Go Online (TSMGO) forged their way into a new frontier: the highly accessible digital landscape of online performance. In this book, TSMGO co-creator Robert Myles and Valerie Clayman Pye explore the success of TSMGO from a practical standpoint, offering insights and strategies that can help theatre makers at every level respond proactively to the future of Theatre in the digital era. Each chapter addresses a different aspect of the creative process and concludes with take-homes so readers can learn how to innovate rapidly, to undertake research and development in order to create their own models, and to cultivate their own theatrical communities. Written for theatremakers, directors, producers, and creatives of all levels of experience, this book will help readers to think critically and creatively about theatre, and theatre pedagogues to understand how to train their students for the theatre of the future"-- Provided by publisher.
