This book illustrates how the world's greatest theatre makers combine collaboration with leadership at all levels, from a production's conception to its final performance.
It challenges the notion that creating brilliant theatrical productions requires a creative hierarchy with the director at its top. Viewing the theatrical production process instead from the perspectives of the producer, director, playwright, actor, designer, stage manager, dramaturg and crew person, the authors put forward ways in which you can incorporate the same techniques into your theatre-making in order to achieve your goals collaboratively.
This second edition contains the following updates and revisions:
- Restructured to bring its key concepts to the fore
- Additional 9 practical applications for the theatre and beyond
- Includes useful case studies of companies such as London-based Improbable and The Second City
- Additional information, perspectives and insights by contemporary collaborators, including innovators such as Bren Brown, Simon Sinek, Tema Okun, Ivo van Hove, Calixto Bieito, Thomas Ostermeier, Yael Farber and Marianne Elliott
- Updated research on collaboration, including Google's Project Aristotle, the 2012 study of hundreds of Google's teams to determine what made them successful
- Expanded appendices with more collaborative content and exercises, including practical suggestions on how to engage the stressful aspects of the production process
- Updated language and terminology in line with current political correct norms
- Fewer Euro-centric examples and more references to theatre-making from across the world
- Expanded exercises throughout the book
