Inventario general- fondo documental

An invaluable guide to the difficult arts of devising plays and directing texts, by one of the UK's leading theatre directors.Throughout a lifetime of experience - as an actor for Mike Leigh, founder of Hull Truck, Artistic Director of the Bush Theatre, and subsequently as a freelance director - Mike Bradwell has forged a reputation as a theatrical innovator and risk-taker.This book begins by exploring the process of devising a play by working intensively through character and improvisation with a group of actors. Using A Bed of Roses as an example, a play that he himself devised, Bradwell shows how the actors set about inventing their characters, whether within a pre-determined framework or with no strictures whatsoever. He explores how actors can then 'grow' their character, both through solo work and through interaction with the other characters. He also examines the role of the director in moulding and shaping the individual scenes, the overall action of the play, and the development of the characters

aid the reader's understanding of the process, are the full texts of both A Bed of Roses ('Hilariously funny, extremely moving and physically frightening... a small masterpiece' Time Out) and Jack Thorne's When You Cure Me ('Painstakingly honest... acutely observant of the petty rivalries and jealousies that sickness provokes' Guardian).
