A drama director's survival guide by David Grote. Directing plays in schools requires knowledge and talents
far different than directing for community or professional theatre. In ten comprehensive chapters the author explains
the "real world" of producing effective theatricals in the school environment. He details the pitfalls
and the problems while providing ideas for consistently successful shows. He covers budgeting, scheduling, faculty
politics, motivating and disciplining students and many other school-life realities beyond a director or teacher's
job description. Anyone faced with producing a play needs this book as a "bible" for guidance and fulfillment
of objectives. A drama director's survival guide.
