The variety, originality, and spontaneity of these plays is a testament to what happens when you give gifted, committed playwrights the opportunity to write a short play knowing that it will be produced. In their hands it has been proven to be a risk that pays off. At the heart of this event is the imaginative impulse of a playwright writing a play knowing that it will be produced as opposed to hoping that it will be produced. How liberating that has proven to be for this talented group of writers and for all the actors, directors, and designers who have joined them to work on these plays. - William Carden, Artistic Director, HB Playwrights Theatre.

The Director as Collaborator teaches essential directing skills while emphasizing how directors and theater productions benefit from collaboration. Good collaboration occurs when the director shares responsibility for the artistic creation with the entire production team, including actors, designers, stage managers, and technical staff. Leadership does not preclude collaboration; in theater, these concepts can and should be complementary. Students will develop their abilities by directing short scenes and plays and by participating in group exercises. New to the second edition: updated interviews, exercises, forms, and appendices new chapter on technology including digital research, previsualization and drafting programs, and web-sharing sites new chapter on devised and ensemble-based works new chapter on immersive theater, including material and exercises on environmental staging and audience–performer interaction
