Cast out : queer lives in theatre -- Ann Arbor, MI: University of Michigan Press, 2006.
"A collection of memoirs and interviews by twenty-two leading performers, playwrights, technicians, producers, critics, educators, and passionate spectators. The book offers a backstage pass to the personal and creative lives of some of the most important and influential theatre artists of the past fifty years: Edward Albee discusses the homophobic critical attacks he endured in the 50s and 60s; Cherry Jones talks about the first time she accepted a Tony Award-and her decision, in that moment, to come out; Peggy Shaw speaks of the drag queen who first inspired her stage career; Craig Lucas issues an impassioned call for theatre practitioners and other artists to unite for the sake of art, creativity, and social change. Also included are memoirs by and interviews with Kate Bornstein, Lisa Kron, Tim Miller, and George C. Wolfe, among others. These diverse voices dispel the cliche of theatre as a "safe haven" and replace the stereotype with a nuanced group portrait of the ways in which theatre and queerness intersect." -- Back cover.

Taking the matter into common hands : [on contemporary art and collaborative practices] --
London: Black Dog Publishing, 2007.
"In recent years the art world has shown a renewed interest in collective work and activity. Collaborations between artists and curators, artists and outside professionals and artists and other artists have become increasingly common, and have raised some pertinent questions regarding authorship and authority. "Taking the matter into common hands" is a collection of essays by some of the leading voices in the field of collaborative art practice. Focusing on working conditions for artists and on collaborative initiatives with activism at their heart, the writing takes a personal, interpretive view of the subject." -- Back cover.

"Interviews with forty highly accomplished public figures. [who] speak candidly about their trials with stage fright and reveal the various paths they followed in overcoming it. Stage fright sufferers. will find tried and true techniques that will help them shed their inhibitions." -- Back cover. Blackman, Cally 100 years of menswear -- London: Laurence King, 2009.
"A rich, comprehensive collection of images covering the revolution in menswear over the last 100 years. Rare photography and illustrations reveal the elegant tailoring of Savile Row and the tough khaki and denim of uniforms and workplaces giving way to an exuberant array of styles and colours as the century progresses. Packed with images of Hollywood style icons, the artist personalities of the 1930s, and more, this unique book explores the evolution of menswear from practical to peacock through a wealth of stunning pictures. The impact of Pierre Cardin, Giorgio Armani, Ralph Lauren, and other designers is contrasted with the street fashion of the 1960s, punk, and the club scene to bring together the story of the flourishing menswear market" -- Back cover. Booth, Wayne C; Colomb, Gregory G; Williams, Joseph M The craft of research -- Chicago, IL; London: University of Chicago Press, 2008.
"Reflects the way researchers actually work: in a complex circuit of thinking, writing, revising, and rethinking. Each part of this process. influences the others. A successful research report is, in fact, an orchestrated conversation between a researcher and a reader. Explains how to build an argument that motivates readers to accept a claim; how to anticipate the reservations of readers and to respond to them appropriately; and how to create introductions and conclusions that answer that most demanding question, "So what?" -- Book jacket. Calasibetta, Charlotte Mankey; Tortora, Phyllis G The Fairchild dictionary of fashion -- New York: Fairchild Publications, 2003.
"Defines more than 15,000 fashion terms, including apparel, accessories, and their components; historical and textile terms that relate to contemporary fashion; and the language of the fashion business. Its organization of 51 broad categories, such as activewear, blouses and tops, clothing, construction details, footwear, headwear, jewellery, laces, necklines, shirts, skirts, and waistlines, promotes comprehension of related terms. Categories are fully cross-referenced to the alphabetical listing. Includes terms not readily found in ordinary dictionaries and pronunciation guides for foreign words. An appendix of designers is updated to include emerging leaders. Lavish new illustrations by Bina Abling enhance definitions, capturing both the details and style of fashion. Labelled anatomical drawings show how the parts of fashion items fit together." -- Back cover. "One of the strengths of the dictionary has been the organisation of entries into categories. A reader who is interested in a definition of a 'peg-top skirt', for example will find that definition in the 'Skirts' category and can compare that definition with those for other types of skirts. Illustrations of a variety of skirt types also appear with the category, allowing for visual comparisons. Should readers not know the category into which an item fits, they can consult the alphabetical listing, where a cross-reference will direct them to the appropriate location." -- Preface. Carrier, David Artwriting -- Amherst, MA: University of Massachusetts Press, 1987.
"Artwriting is concerned with texts of recent art critics. The analysis draws on Arthur Danto's theory of interpretation and upon three connected conceptual points: the need to properly identify an artwork; the possibility of conflicting interpretations; and the use of rhetoric in interpretation." -- Overture
Cumming, Valerie; Cunnington, C. Willett; Cunnington, Phillis The dictionary of fashion history -- Oxford: Berg, 2010.
'A dictionary of English costume' by C. Willett Cunnington, Phillis Cunnington and Charles Beard was originally published in 1960. A monumental achievement and encyclopaedic in scope, it was a comprehensive catalogue of fashion terms from the mid-medieval period up to 1900. It was reissued and updated several times, for the last time in 1976. For decades it has served as a bible for costume historians. 'The dictionary of fashion history' completely updates and supplements the Cunningtons' landmark work to bring it up to the present day. Featuring additional terms and revised definitions, this new edition represents an essential reference for costume historians, students of fashion history, or anyone involved in creating period costume for the theatre, film or television. It is also fascinating reading for those simply interested in the subject. Clear, concise, and meticulous in detail, this essential reference answers countless questions relating to the history of dress and adornment and promises to be a definitive guide for generations to come. -- Back cover. Includes a glossary of fibres, fabrics, materials; laces; obsolete colour names. Gilbert, Ian Why do I need a teacher when I’ve got Google? : the essential guide to the big issues for every twenty-first century teacher -- London: Routledge, 2011.
"This book is not designed to help you teach better. But it is intended to help you become a better teacher. It consists of a series of discrete chapters addressing what I consider to be some of the most important questions and controversies, insights and innovations in the world of education today. The sorts of things that all teachers should know about, but for all sorts of reasons, so few do. You can read it cover to cover if you like or you can dip into it and learn about, reflect on, assimilate, experiment with or even reject what I am suggesting. It's not a series of 'cut out and do' exercises, rather it is designed to make you think. And then do." -- Introduction
Goffee, Rob; Jones, Gareth Why should anyone be led by you? : what it takes to be an authentic leader -- Boston, MA:
Harvard Business School Press, 2006.
"Rob Goffee and Gareth Jones draw from more than twenty-five years of research, consulting work, and firsthand leadership experience to offer a convincing argument for the merits of authentic leadership, and practical advice for how leaders at all levels can achieve it. The book shows how great leaders essentially act as "authentic chameleons": consistently displaying their true selves throughout the changes of contexts that require them to play a variety of roles. Authentic leaders also constantly nurture their relationship with followers by skilfully balancing the inherent tensions of the leadership role: highlighting their strengths while revealing human weaknesses, maintaining their individuality while conforming enough to hold the organisation together, and establishing intimacy with followers while keeping enough distance to command respect."-- Book jacket. Hingorani, Dominic British Asian theatre : dramaturgy, process and performance -- Basingstoke: Palgrave
"Explores the creativity, innovation and diversity of major British Asian theatre companies. Including coverage of Tara Arts, Tamasha and Kali theatre companies, as well as important writers such as Hanif Kureishi and Gurpreet Kaur Bhatti, the book analyses the dramaturgy, cultural and political contexts and critical receptions that have informed major productions. Complete with plot summaries and illustrated throughout, the text explores the extraordinary contribution that British Asian theatre has made to the British stage over the past 30 years." -- Back cover. Homans, Jennifer Apollo's angels : a history of ballet -- New York: Random House, 2010.
"For more than four hundred years, the art of ballet has stood at the centre of Western civilisation. Its traditions serve as a record of our past. A ballerina dancing 'The sleeping beauty' today is a link in a long chain of dancers stretching back to sixteenth-century Italy and France: her graceful movements recall a lost world of courts, kings, and aristocracy, but her steps are also marked by the dramatic changes in dance and culture that followed. Ballet has been shaped by the Renaissance and Classicism, the Enlightenment and Romanticism, Bolshevism, Modernism, and the Cold War. Ballet is unique. It has no written texts or standardised notation. It is a storytelling art passed on from teacher to student. .And while ballet's language is shared by dancers everywhere, its artists have developed distinct national styles. French, Italian, Danish, Russian, English, and American traditions each have their own expression, often formed in response to political and societal upheavals. From ballet’s origins in the Renaissance and the codification of its basic steps and positions under France’s Louis XIV (himself an avid dancer), the art form wound its way through the courts of Europe, from Paris and Milan to Vienna and St. Petersburg. In the twentieth century, emigre dancers taught their art to a generation in the United States and in Western Europe, setting off a new and radical transformation." -- Book jacket. Kester, Grant H Conversation pieces : community and communication in modern art -- Berkeley, CA:
University of California Press, 2004.
"There are. a number of contemporary artists and art collectives that have defined their practice around the facilitation of dialogue among diverse communities. Parting from the traditions of object making, these artists have adopted a performative, process-based approach. They are "context providers" rather than "content providers". whose work involves the creative orchestration of collaborative encounters and conversations, well beyond the institutional confines of the gallery or museum. When contemporary critics confront dialogical projects, they often apply a formal, pleasure-based methodology that cannot value, or even recognise, the communicative interactions that these artists find so important. My goal here is to understand this work as a specific form of art practice with its own characteristics and effects, related to, but also different from, other forms of art and other forms of activism as well." -- Introduction "Discusses a disparate network of artists and collectives - including The Art of Change, Helen and Newton Harrison, Littoral, Suzanne Lacy, Stephen Willats, and WochenKlausur - united by a desire to create understanding through creative dialogue that crosses boundaries of race, religion, and culture." -- Back cover. Landau, Neil; Frederick, Matthew 101 things I learned in film school -- New York: Grand Central Publishing, 2010.

Lord, Peter; Sibley, Brian Cracking animation : [the Aardman book of 3-D animation] -- New York: Thames & Hudson,
"The first part of this book, written by Brian Sibley, sets Aardman's achievements and the history of the studio into the tradition of 3-D animation, which spans such Hollywood triumphs as 'King Kong' and 'Jason and the Argonauts', as well as such well-known characters as Godzilla.

This new and updated edition includes an entirely new chapter on CGI, and the text has been revised throughout to reflect recent technological advances and to explore the ways in which new media use animation." -- Back cover.

"Offers methods that will get students emotionally and imaginatively involved with the plays while developing their capacity for critical judgement. First debunks the idolatry and polarising academic politics surrounding the study of Shakespeare and then. [sets] up the plays as engaging historical works instead of items to check off a cultural literacy list. Next Metzger takes you into real classrooms for a complete look at how she and other educators teach several major works, including 'Romeo and Juliet' and 'Hamlet', offering both a framework for teaching any Shakespearean drama and play-specific essential questions for ten of his other most popular plays." -- Back cover.

Expand your design possibilities by learning about cross-media use of concert lighting techniques and their application in film, video, theatre and the corporate world." -- Back cover. "This is not a textbook as much as it is a history lesson and a discussion by experts and practitioners of their craft who tell stories of their experiences. Sure, you will also find explanations of the equipment and high tech gadgets that the industry has grown to love. I am a big believer that we learn more from history and listening to people who have survived the gruelling road life to tell the reader what was tough, hard work but amazingly fun." -- Preface. Pearson, Mike Site-specific performance -- Basingstoke: Palgrave Macmillan, 2010.
"Site-specific performance – acts of theatre and performative events at landscape locations, in village streets, in urban situations. In houses, chapels, barns, disused factories, railway stations; on hillsides, in forest clearings, under water. At the scale of civil engineering; as intimate as a guided walk. Leading theatre artist and scholar Mike Pearson draws on thirty years of practical experience, proposing original approaches to the creation and study of performance outside the auditorium. In this book he suggests organising principles, innovative strategies, methods and exercises for making theatre in a variety of contexts and locations. Through examples, case studies and projects, he develops distinctive theoretical insights into the relationship of site and performance, scenario and scenography. [This book] encourages practical initiatives in the conception, devising and staging of performances, while also recommending effective models for its critical appreciation." -- Back cover.

Angeles County Museum of Art; Prestel, 2010.
"The creation of eighteenth and nineteenth century fashion moved at a much slower tempo than the lightning speed pace of contemporary fashion, so great attention was paid to the smallest details. [This book] celebrates these and brilliantly examines the transformation of the fashionable silhouette over this span of more than two centuries. Lavish photos and illustrative text provide historical context, showing how technical inventions, political events, and global trade often profoundly affected style. [The book] showcases nearly two hundred highlights from the Los Angeles County Museum of Art's new European collection of rare pieces of historic fashion and accessories for men, women and children. LACMA recently acquired this singular collection, which numbers more than one thousand objects and represents a total of fifty years of acquisitions by prominent historic dress dealers and collectors Martin Kamer of England and Wolfgang Ruf of Switzerland. The pieces were chosen for their roles in the story of fashion's aesthetic and technical development from the Age of Enlightenment to World War I." -- Book jacket.

In this love story between an American man and a Cuban woman, the onstage actors interact with the filmed characters, dissolving virtually the real-life barriers that prevent Cubans and Americans from travelling freely to each other's countries. The Cuban actors speak Spanish and the Americans speak English; both languages are surtitled. Axler, Rachel Smudge -- In: TheatreForum. n.38, 2010 : p.16-34 Cast: 2m 1w
We follow Nick and Colby from parents-to-be, unable to interpret the ultra-sound, to parental maturity, as they each come to terms with their feelings towards their severely disabled daughter and towards their future, in a play that manages to be simultaneously moving, disturbing and funny. Axler says in an interview: "I’ve tried really hard to wipe away any real notion of what this child’s physical reality is because it’s really, really not supposed to be a play about deformity or disability or health or abortion or medicine. I was writing about the terrible fear of not loving, or connecting to, your own child.”

Romeril, John Jonah -- In: Damage; Currency Press, 2010. : p.83-170 Cast: 5m 5w doubling
"'Jonah', with music by Alan John, is Romeril's Brechtian adaptation of Louis Stone's 1911 novel about Sydney's larrikin Push at the turn of the nineteenth century.Romeril's version tells Stone's original story but adds layers, especially with the exploitative manufacturer Packer, whom Jonah eventually buys out. More importantly this version of the story takes it forward to the First World War, making Jonah a war profiteer and setting his company firmly on the path towards twentieth-century corporate success. The stories of the women he meets on his way - Ada, the teenage mother of his beloved son; Clara, the woman he loves but rejects when she turns out to be criminally mercenary; and Miss Giltinan, the dull but business-like woman in the store, for whom he finally settles - are told with much less sentimentality than in Stone's novel." -- Introduction 'Jonah' was commissioned and first produced under the title 'Jonah Jones' by the Sydney Theatre Company at the Wharf Theatre, Sydney, on 26 October 1985. -- p. 85 The original music is available through HLA Management. Romeril, John Lost weekend : a surreal and gothic Western District tale -- In: Damage; Currency Press,
".brings together two couples for a weekend at Xanadu, the fading but luxurious homestead and property that Margie, like a generation of matriarchs before her, struggles to maintain. Alongside them is the wonderfully sensible Theresa, a young but highly capable and independent representative of the old servant/slave class on which rural Australia once built its economic power. .The old squattocracy . comes up hard against the new industrial world represented by Eric's long battle as a trade union activist." -- Introduction "This version of the play is based on the draft performed for the 1989 premier season. It was condensed and slightly rewritten at the behest of Queensland Theatre Company for their subsequent production." -- p.247
Romeril, John Top end -- In: Damage; Currency Press, 2010. : p.171-244 Cast: 4m 3w doubling
"The play is set in Darwin in 1975 eleven months after its devastation by Cyclone Tracy, and during the Australian election battle between the sacked Prime Minister Gough Whitlam and the Opposition Leader Malcolm Fraser. Fraser had forced the election by controversially blocking the money supply bills in the Senate which left the Government without funds to meet its day-to-day costs. On top of this, a month previously a group of Australian journalists (the 'Balibo Five') had been killed in East Timor during the Indonesian incursions that were a prelude to their invasion in early December. The old union battler Dolly, the humanitarian nurse Rosa, and the idealistic young journalist Jill are all in some way traumatised by the events around them, but they also have intimated needs of their own. And they meet up with the old digger Dight and his rabidly right-wing but passionately loving wife Norma in a series of encounters which establish this as a community in a war zone full of people who, for all their differences, are not themselves at war with each other." -- Introduction "This version of the script is based on the MTC's premier production." -- p.173

"Christopher Sly, a beggarly tinker, falls asleep drunk, having been thrown out of an ale-house. A lord takes him into his house and plays a trick involving the pretence that Sly is a lord himself, for whose benefit a company of players will act The Taming of the Shrew. The main action then commences. Fortune-hunting Hortensio, rich old Gremio and newly-arrived-in-town Lucentio all wish to court beautiful Bianca, but she cannot marry before her older sister, shrewish Kate. Petruchio vows to woo Kate both for her dowry and for the challenge of overcoming her fearsome reputation. Hortensio and Lucentio gain access to Bianca by disguising themselves as tutors, while Lucentio's servant Tranio plays the role of his master. Petruchio marries Kate – turning up late wearing the most unsuitable clothes imaginable – and takes her off to his country house, where he 'tames' her through various forms of deprivation. Tranio persuades a travelling schoolteacher to pretend to be Lucentio's father Vincentio in order to give assurance of Lucentio's financial means; there is confusion when the real Vincentio turns up, but the love-match between Lucentio and Bianca is happily settled.

Shakespeare, William Troilus and Cressida -- Basingstoke: Macmillan, 2010. Cast: 24m 4w + extras
"For seven years the Greeks and Trojans have been at war following the Trojan prince Paris' abduction of Helen, the most beautiful woman in the world, from her Greek husband Menelaus. The besieging Greek army is encamped under the walls of Troy and, at the point at which the play begins, the war has reached stalemate. The Greeks are quarrelling amongst themselves. Achilles, their greatest champion, refuses to fight and has withdrawn to his tent with his lover, Patroclus. Ulysses tries to entice Achilles back to the field by arousing his jealously against Ajax, a rival warrior, whom he acclaims as their new hero and elects to meet Hector, the Trojan champion, in single combat. Equally at odds with themselves, the Trojans are debating the value of continuing the war merely for the sake of keeping Helen. Hector declares her not worth the lives she costs but when his brother Troilus contends that honour demands they continue to fight for her, Hector is brought round to his point of view. Although the single combat between Ajax and Hector ends in a show of amity, hostilities are resumed the following day. Troilus, however, is much distracted from these military concerns by his love for Cressida, the daughter of Calchas, a Trojan who has defected to the Greek camp whilst leaving his daughter in Troy. The young lovers are eagerly abetted by Cressida's uncle Pandarus, who acts as their go-between. However, after only one night together they are parted when, in exchange for the captured general Antenor, Cressida is sent to join her father in the Greek camp. Almost immediately she betrays Troilus with the Greek Diomedes and, discovering this, Troilus is plunged into despair. Despite his sister Cassandra's prophecies of doom, Hector goes into battle and is treacherously murdered by Achilles, who has finally been roused into action by the death of Patroclus. With the fall of Troy certain, Troilus, disillusioned as a lover, assumes Hector's role as the Trojan champion and vows revenge on Achilles. The dying, disease-ridden Pandarus is left to end the play." -- The Royal Shakespeare Company website.

"In a narrow and lifeless existence, Woyzeck - a lowly private in the army - must make sense of why his life is turning in on itself. His mistress Marie, regional Captain and arrogant Drum Major all descend into a circle of betrayal against Woyzeck, and the local Doctor's abstract experiments on him do not help the matter. His learning of Marie's affair with the Drum Major is the tipping point, which tragically sends him a downward spiral into madness and vengeful fantasies. There are glimpses of hope with Marie's eventual repentance and times when Woyzeck seems to reflect on his life and the subject of human choice; but do they have any effect? Will Woyzeck regain control? What happens if he does not?'Woyzeck', adapted from the renowned Georg Buchner stage-play of the same name, analyses the warpedness of the human condition, the opportunities for hope that we miss and the social paradoxes that can work through us all. This production is the world's first English-speaking feature-length film adaptation of the stage-play.
