The future of theatre belongs to the maverick minds who possess the skills to mix things up and have enough tools in their box to trick the game. This practical, grassroots, self-empowerment book for theatremakers is for anyone who wants to make live theatre, whether you're an actor, director, producer, designer, or writer. Whether you're all of these, or none of them, categories don't matter. What matters is making your show and putting it in front of an audience.
This book is not a method or a practice. It's an accessible toolbox of reflections and provocations designed to help you – an independent-minded, career-driven, professional theatremaker – along the path towards achieving your dreams. Inside, Russell Lucas shares his decades of experience in independent theatremaking, covering aspects including:
Generating and developing ideas
Working with other creatives
Promoting your show and selling tickets
Understanding the power of the audience
Making ends meet and sustaining your career
He tackles abstract problems, dissects practical ones, and debunks plenty of myths along the way. Inspiring and unconventional, but always grounded in sound, real-world sense, 300 Thoughts for Theatremakers is a book for anyone who's passionate about a life in theatre and wants to make that a reality.
Thank God for this book. It will surely be a comfort and support to all those who follow in Russell Lucas's independent and determined footsteps.
