1.Backwards and Forwards: A Technical Manual for Reading PlaysBackwards & Forwards: A Technical Manual for Reading Plays
from Southern Illinois University Press
Price: $16.15

Customer Review:
I've been acting for ten years and got my first directing assignment. I know a lot about directing from having been directed, but this book was a great guide for script analysis with the big picture in mind, not just one character. The show was a success and the actors still like me.

4.Spring AwakeningSpring Awakening
from Theatre Communications Group
Price: $11.16

Customer Review:
Excellent book. EXACTLY line for line from the musical. I highly suggest reading "Spring's Awakening" along with this. It is the original version of this play that the musical is based off of.

2. Blake Synder's - Save the Cat
3. Syd Field's - Foundations of Screenwriting
4. Syd... more info

Customer Review:
Tom Stoppard is arguably one of the greatest playwrights of all time (and I do say arguably), and this collection only proves it. I am currently away at college while I write this review, and have pitifully forgotten my battered, dog-eared copy of this book at home, and so I'm pining away because it... more info
