This “survival kit” is just that — designed to be used, not collecting dust on a reference shelf. Cleverly written, this comprehensive guide to producing theater is packed with tested tips, timesavers and problem-solvers gleaned from the authors’ experience in directing over 120 full-length plays and musicals. It’s all organized into five step-by-step sections: Play Selection, Pre-Production, Rehearsals and Performances, Audience Development, and Directory. The text covers every aspect of play production, including budgeting, casting, rehearsals, set design, lighting, costume, make-up, publicity, promotion, and more. This is the most complete, helpful book we’ve found of basic information for both beginners and veterans. Including over fifty-five reproducible checklists, forms, and samples, it will help you direct contemporary, period, and musical plays.

YES to this book! It’s been a lifesaver no matter how many productions you’ve done and whether full length or shortened. I go back to it all the time. Kayla Driscoll, Northern Lehigh High School, Slatington, PA
