520 _a"Directions for Directing: Theatre and Method lays out contemporary concepts of directing practice and examines specific techniques of approaching scripts, actors, and the stage. Addressed to both young and experienced directors but also to the broader community of theatre practitioners, scholars and dedicated theatre goers, the book sheds light on the director's multiplicity of roles throughout the life of a play - from the moment of its conception to opening night - and explores the director's processes of inspiration, interpretation, communication and leadership.
