"With a no-nonsense and blessedly candid approach, Bob Moss and Wendy
Dann have written not only an indispensable practicum for the young
director, but also a delightful refresher course for the working
director. The authors encourage and challenge us to engage our
theatrical imaginations for a lifetime of storytelling on a multitude of
stages." --Michael Mayer, Tony Award-Winning Director
By focusing on five fundamentals for staging a play--Story, Intention,
Character, Space, and Theme--veteran theater directors Robert Moss and
Wendy Dann help stage directors learn how to build their own practice
and begin to master the daunting task of staging a story.
