Publisher Description
The Dramatic Imagination is one of the few enduring works written about set design.
Robert Edmond Jones's innovations in set design and lighting brought new ideas to the stage, but it is greater understanding of design - its role at the heart of theater - that has continued to inspire theater students. The volume includes "A New Kind of Drama," "To a Young Stage Designer" and six other of Jones's "reflections."
Customer Reviews
Insightful to the truth of theater.
Robert Edward Jones was ahead of his time with his thinking of how theater should work. While most of it almost has a desperate cry for how he desires/views the theater should grow and be truth, there are many insightful quotes to pull from and cause you to think. A great source if you are looking for how theater as a whole should work.
