This extended new edition of a seminal text marks the 30th
anniversary of the original book's major intervention in the
discipline. Bradby and Williams' field-defining book introduced the
continental-European approach to directing, recognising the work of
the modern stage director as an artist in his or her own right for
the first time. Now edited by Peter M. Boenisch in collaboration
with David Williams, this new edition includes an additional four
chapters by leading contemporary experts on theatre direction.
Covering recent practices and developments, as well as new trends
in the academic research on directing, Directors' Theatre
interrogates working ethics and performance aesthetics, directors'
work with actors as a central creative source and their responses
to the ongoing reassessment of theatre's role and function in
contemporary culture. This long-awaited reissue will make a
classic, authoritative study on directors and directing accessible
to a new generation of students, scholars and artists. It is
essential reading for undergraduate and postgraduate students of
Theatre, Performance Studies and Directing. New to this Edition: -
Includes four new chapters written by leading contemporary experts
on theatre direction: Patrice Pavis, Katalin Trencsenyi, the
research team of Luk Van den Dries, and DuskaRadosavljevic - New
chapters discuss recent approaches and developments in theatre
directing as well as research on directing, including artists such
as Luk Perceval, Daniel Jeanneteau, Improbable and Ivo van Hove,
while also introducing the development of theatre direction in
Eastern Europe - The original text has been carefully revised by
David Williams and chapters have been supplemented with new
introductions and conclusions
