1. 1. Directors On Directing

   A Source Book of the Modern Theatre

   

   An anthology of manifestos, essays, and production notes from pioneering stage directors, this collection traces the emergence of the modern director from the late nineteenth to mid-twentieth century. Through firsthand accounts, it explores rehearsal methods, actor-director collaboration, staging and design, and the evolution of directing theory, juxtaposing contrasting approaches—from realism and symbolism to constructivism, epic theatre, and the theatre of cruelty—while offering both historical context and practical insights into how directing reshaped theatrical storytelling.
