Post-Show Discussions in New Play Development

Product Description Many theatres host post-show discussions, or talkbacks, as part of their season. This book is a critical examination of what has/has not worked with post-show discussions utilized in new play development, providing a framework for understanding discussions, steps for building the foundation of them, and various strategies for structuring them. Review "This is a valuable and significant project. It is well researched and I am very impressed that Fisher refers so often to works and writers for young audiences, and puts them on an equal footing with those who work for and with adult audiences." - Pamela Sterling, Associate Professor, Film, Dance, and Theatre, Arizona State University, USA About the Author Teresa A.
