Alice Through the Proscenium: more scenic set design
Alice Through the Proscenium is THE traveler's guide to the strange world of theater set design.
Written with wry humor and based on the author's wide experience in regional and civic theater at all budget levels, Alice takes the reader step-by-step through the process: first reading the script; then design, drawing, and modeling; into set building, painting, and dressing; and right through to final strike. Along the way, this slim volume explains working with the rest of the characters - the design and production teams of director, producers, designers, builders, and actors. Even how to deal with critics. Because not all the drama is on-stage.
Filled with examples and down-to-earth suggestions, Alice is a resource for both new and seasoned designers... who may find themselves laughing out loud. (Not all the humor is on-stage either.) Theaters, producers, and directors will find insight into theater sets and their designers.
There are comprehensive chapters on design methods and elements. The text has helpful illustrations, an index/glossary, tool and material lists, a romp through interior design history, and suggestions for further reading. The final chapters discuss film and television production design and the realities of a design career.
