Directors Teach Directing: Conversations on Practice and Pedagogy

By Tom Dugdale

Directors Teach Directing offers a rare, intimate look inside the classrooms and pedagogy of today's most respected teachers of stage directing from around the world.

Through a series of in-depth interviews, as well as a compilation of the exercises that these instructors have found most impactful in the classroom, the book collects and explores pedagogical strategies and rehearsal techniques that have sustained the creative processes of some of today's most ground-breaking director-teachers.

Teachers featured in the book include K.J. Sanchez, Kym Moore, Park Gun-hyung, Anne Bogart, Katie Mitchell, Lileana Blain-Cruz and Yuri Kordonsky, representing the Yale School of Drama, Columbia University, the Korea National University of Arts and Royal Holloway University, among other esteemed institutions worldwide.

While much has been written on the art of directing, this book is a must-read for anyone interested in teaching theatre directing to the next generation.
