If you are interested in learning
more about this practical, innovative approach to helping
a group create and then perform an original theatre production,
look for my book Strategies for Playbuilding (Heinemann,
2001). It's available from the publisher, on the Internet,
in bookstores and in libraries.
Strategies for Playbuilding is the winner of the 2002 Distinguished Book Award of the American Alliance for Theatre and Education.
The book is designed to be ready-to-use
for those with or without a background in theatre. It begins
with suggestions for what to do and why at the first cast
meeting and then moves on to techniques for developing ensemble
and performance skills, selecting a topic, creating individual
pieces (scenes, songs and choreography), assembling pieces
into a show, rehearsing and performing.
Take me to the publisher.
