The profession of directing is barely a century old. On Directing considers the position of the director in theater and performance today. What is a director? How do they begin work on a play or performance? What methods are used in rehearsal? Is the director an enabler; a collaborator or dictator? As we enter the new millennium; is the very concept of directing under increasing threat from changes in thinking and practice? The full diversity of todays approaches to directing are explored through a series of interviews with leading contemporary practitioners. On Directing is a landmark book about the directors craft.

A many-talented writer sharing important conceptsBy 1musician1114M.C.Richards (Mary Caroline) has inspired me for decades with her book "Centering" regarding pottery and the soul. Now I have found this book and love her way of writing: so fresh; natural; profound; individual and important for so many of us to read. Highly recommended for anyone who has an open mind ; a good intellectual brain; a warm heart and (yes) even a healthy soul.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
