Its a series of badly recycled polemics that never really finds an authentic voice. It reads like a dusted off masters thesis that has been regurgitated by two academics who are trying to maintain tenured careers rather than being truly helpful to todays emerging theatre artists. If youre required to buy this book for a class- you should resell it after the term.0 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Wish Id read this earlierBy K. BushmannOh. how I wish Id read this book earlier in my career. too! When youre a new director. you think everyone knows something you dont. But its in this book! I especially liked the director perspectives and how to best support the designers - and Roznowski and Domers advice for all of us on the production team. We all want the same thing: for everyone to do their best work. to get along. and to make the best show ever. I like that they set the bar high. told you what works and doesnt. then made you believe it could be done. Was an easy read. too. with humor. Written more like two trusted friends giving you good advice than academics with tons of experience. Ive already recommended this book to many theatre friends.
