Comprehensive Theatre Source

This book has all the information needed for someone of little experience to be able to put on a show. It covers every aspect of theatre (whether costumes, lighting, or acting). I was amazed by the simplicity of the writing while it covers technical areas like sound. It does not go in depth at all on acting, which is a bit dissapointing for an actor like myself, but if nothing else, it will suffice.

A fantastic foundation course in acting for all ages!

For only 64 pages, this book is packed with basics of lighting, props and costumes, as well as, learning your lines! It offered my 7 year old "wanna be actress" an awesome history of acting, types of theatre, and definite do's and don'ts. An awful lot of "homework" and work went into this book! Diagrams, colored photographs and lots and lots of information!
