This diverse book brings together theoretical and practical
viewpoints on objects in performance, how they can be part of
theatre scenery, equal partners in performance, or autonomous
things. Through close analysis of specific performances, Eleanor
Margolies examines actor training, scenography, materials,
construction techniques and object theatre. The text investigates a
number of critical questions, including: what the difference is
between a theatre prop and an everyday object; how audiences
respond to the various ways that props are used by actors and
designers; and whether devising with 'stuff' affect the making
process or the attitudes to materiality embodied in performance.
With discussions of papier mache and collapsing chairs, fake food
and stage blood, Props is an essential sourcebook for students,
practitioners and researchers of theatre, design and prop-making.
