Full Description
The second edition of the classic industry text From Page to Stage: How Theatre Designers Make Connections Between Scripts and Images explores the relationship among text analysis, imagination, and creation of theatrical design.
How does a designer harness something as elusive as the human imagination to create a world that will complement and enhance a dramatic production? What steps are involved in making the jump from a script's text to an engaging, imaginative stage? From Page to Stage explores these questions, offers advice for reading and understanding playscripts, and provides a clear, detailed method for identifying, collecting, and organizing script facts. Heavily illustrated with striking examples, it addresses:
the who, what, where, how, and (maybe) why of text analysis
what happens when the designer's imagination meets the script
moving from dramatic text to theatrical event.
Also included are photo/interview essays, which ultimately ask the designer, "How will your interpretation affect the audience/individual/society intellectually, emotionally, spiritually, and politically?"
Updated with new interviews, illustrations, and current trends and processes, this guide will inform student and working designers on how to design a script for the stage.
