Wednesday 23 May
7.30-9.30pm

Conference Room
City West Lotteries House
2 Delhi Street WEST PERTH



An introduction to directing for the stage, covering considerations in the preproduction period:

- role of the director
- choosing a play
- building a team
- knowing the play
- director's decisions
- auditions
- casting

Presented by yours truly with apologies to Phil, whose workshop at the Blue Room 11 years ago formed the original basis for much of this session.

This workshop is just one of the Green Room series of workshops presented by the Graduate Dramatic Society with the generous support of the Independent Theatre Association.

Entry is free, although a gold coin donation to defray the cost of tea, coffee and light supper is appreciated!

Cheers
Grant

While this particular session is more theory than practical exercises, it is intended to provoke people to consider what they might take to be accepted practice. It should offer some new ideas for those looking for fresh approaches and form a good basis for those starting from scratch for the first time.

Looking forward to it.

All takers welcome!
