Museum theatre can be one of the most effective and rewarding programs
your institution ever undertakes, and it can be one of the most
challenging! Some institutions shy away from theatre because it seems
too foreign to their mission, while others take it on enthusiastically
but with little understanding of its demands. In Exploring Museum
Theatre Tessa Bridal, one of the leading experts in the field, helps
bridge these gaps and leads you along the path to a successful museum
theatre program. She covers the philosophical and historical background
including how to find your style, developing your first program, costs
and funding, working with actors, directors, and other professionals,
technical issues, evaluations, promotion, presenting difficult issues,
collaborations, and historic interpretation. Appendixes and a
bibliography round out this excellent reference.
