Scenography –- the manipulation and orchestration of the performance environment -– is an increasingly popular and key area in performance studies. This book introduces the reader to the purpose, identity and scope of scenography and its theories and concepts. Settings and structures, light, projected images, sound, costumes and props are considered in relation to performing bodies, text, space and the role of the audience. Concentrating on scenographic developments in the twentieth century, the Introduction examines how these continue to evolve in the twenty-first century. Scenographic principles are clearly explained through practical examples and their theoretical context. Although acknowledging the many different ways in which design shapes the creation of scenography, the book is not exclusively concerned with the role of the theatre designer. In order to map out the wider territory and potential of scenography, the theories of pioneering scenographers are discussed alongside the work of directors, writers and visual artists.

Costumes designed and made for devised or physical drama, contemporary circus, or for dance differ radically from the more traditional costume work produced for naturalistic performance. For those working in the field – whether professional or student – these differences present challenges that this book seeks to highlight and explain, while offering effective solutions to overcome them. Includes: the differences between designing for scripted and for devised work; the specialized designing, cutting & making, and fitting of costumes for dance, circus and other physical work; the role of the designer/maker in devising company design; invention in the rehearsal room; the management of both time & budget with the late changes that happen with devised work; and the breadth of different skills used in the work for performances.

The Handbook of Model-making for Set Designers describes the entire process of making scale models for stage sets, from the most basic cutting and assembling methods to more advanced skills, including painting, texturing & finishing techniques, and useful hints on presenting the completed model. Many drawings and colour photographs of the writer's own work illustrate the text. Some state-of-the-art computerized techniques are described here for the first time in a book of this kind, including many ways in which digital techniques can be used in combination with the more traditional methods to enhance the model-maker's work. This book will be of use not only to theatre designers, but to anyone with an interest in scale models of any kind. Topics covered: tools and materials; painting and texturing of architectural models, people, trees & organic elements, moving parts, furniture, and dressings.
