The Creative Spirit: An Introduction to Theatre

The Creative Spirit: An Introduction to Theatre

Focusing on the collaborative process, <i>The Creative Spirit</i> 6e introduces students to theatre through the plays themselves and the playwrights, directors, actors, and designers who combine their talents to create the theatre event. <i>The Creative Spirit</i> provides a rich context for each play included, with a discussion of the playwright's biography and sources, historical and cultural timelines, and a case study of a particular production of the play so that students can experience theatre from the inside. All of the materials for a complete course are presented together in one volume.
