This set introduces students to some fascinating but often overlooked
areas of staging a show. These areas may be less visible than those of
acting or directing, but they are no less valuable. Whether they're
creating a look, choreographing movement, orchestrating a production, adding vocals, or integrating
puppets into a performance, students can make their mark on the theater. These
books will also help prepare students for roles that will increase the skills
that fit their aptitude and interests.
