A DIRECTOR PREPARES with Peter Flynn
Directing a play or musical requires both a specific point of view and an ability to facilitate good work from a variety of personalities and skill levels. Vision, communication, and discernment of shared perspective are all integral to the collaboration we cultivate as the leaders of the process, from preproduction to performance. How do we find our personal way in to any given script? What do the writers require and how does our perspective clarify, enhance, and heighten that? Ultimately, how do we communicate this vision and approach to the rest of our company: producers (administration), designers, and actors?
This workshop will use the Stephen Schwartz / Bob Fosse musical Pippin to illuminate an understanding of “concept” and how the director becomes both the spokesperson and arbiter of this vision from creative talks with designers, through casting, to rehearsals and performance. This course is designed to discuss and answer questions around the entire directing process including design, casting, scheduling, character development, staging, tech, and enrolling all key players along the way.
