Customer comments on this selection.
Great for beginners to intermediate! This book was used as a text book in a stage management class I took last quarter. I was well versed in theater before taking the class, but not from a stage management point of view. This book helps explain everything from simple terms to more advanced backstage lingo. Also, the author gives great explanations of how to block scenes, call cues, make transitions from the rehearsal space to the performace space, making the actors feel at home, and more. It was one interesting text book!
A Must Read For Those Entering the Theatre I found this book to be extremely helpful when teaching churches how to adapt theatrical techniques to the church setting. It is also a unique handbook that breaks down the lingo and explains the need for a stage manager in a show. As a professional, I find it valuable to recommend to those who have never been in theatre or those learning to become a stage manager. Everything is concise and to the point without talking down to people. I highly recommend this book.
Highly recommended I found this book to be full of wonderful ideas (too bad I had already learned most of them the hard way :-). This is a wonderful reference for the professional stage manager but can also be easily adapted for community or college theatre as well.
Good Starter Book The Stage Managment Handbook is a great book for those who are new to the stage managment scene. However, those experienced in stage managment will probably not find this book very informative. So... if you're new and looking for a place to start, I wholeheartedly reccomend this book. If you are a backstage vet, then spend your money on something more advanced.
A great reference book! I keep buying this book for friends who want to make Stage Management their career. It has great pointers,forms,glossaries and a complete look at what you are getting yourself into when you agree to stage manage even a community theatre production. It is cheaper than the Lawrence Stern book, which is also an EXCELLENT book.
