An introduction to theater displaying the diversity and richness of stage productions from Ancient Greece to the multimedia designs of Josef Svoboda. The new edition travels the spectrum of playwriting and production, the foundations of the craft, its manifestations in Elizabethan drama and African American projects, and the elements of theatrical space and production design, playwriting, directing, acting, costume design, lighting, sound, and new mixed media experiments. Brockett (U. of Texas, Austin) returns to 14 seminal plays to illustrate examples in the text, providing exceptional continuity. Includes photographs and illustrations.
