Play Directing in the School - Softcover
Directing plays in schools is far different than directing for community or professional theatre. This invaluable text effectively details and explains the world of producing plays in the school environment. In ten comprehensive chapters we are provided with ideas for consistently successful shows... while avoiding the pitfalls and the problems that often block the way. From the selecting of the script to casting to rehearsals to building your theatre program, Grote supplies the key to opening the curtain to successful productions. Whether it's budgeting, scheduling, or the motivating and management of students, this is a must for anyone directing in an educational institution.

Since he organized his own theater company in Wichita Falls, Texas, at age eighteen, David Grote has directed more than 150 productions.
