Scene Design and Stage Lighting

I am a Scenic Designer and found this book to very informative. It gives the basic information for someone getting started in theatre. This book is not for people that are looking for designer profiles and the best designs in concept. It is for beginners breaking down all the info you would need to know about theatre and getting started in Scenic and Lighting Design. The biggest positive for me it that the book contains mostly designs that I haven't seen in any other design books. The designs are from more regional designers as apposed to world renowned designers. It's always nice to have new things to be inspired by.I bought the book used and it was worth it for the new inspiration.

Got it for a college class.

Book was required for Scene Design and Stagecraft course at school. I am no where near finished with it, as the class has just started, but already I feel like I'm learning a lot about the construction portion of the book.Book was in great condition upon purchase, and came in before the class so that is a bonus as well.

Good introduction to the subject. Excellent reference book with solid examples; however could do with more updated examples.

Bought for a class assignment

tons of useful information

It was perfect

Not worth the price at all, really. I don't like the book either, so I wouldn't make a purchase like this again.

I am a theatre teacher who came into the profession through acting. This book is loaded with all the back stage basics and beyond to fill in the gaps of production knowledge!
