Скачать или смотреть Ready, set, stage – Bringing kingdoms together | Offstage

It takes a village to bring a theatre production together. This episode takes you further backstage and also back in time, to when the production Kingdoms Apart was first conceived. Technical Director Kenny cycles through some of the solutions that were conceived for this three-hour play to bring to life as much of the director’s vision as possible. Producers Joyce and Michele share the process of bringing a new work from concept to script, while Stage and Production Managers Carolene and Dan Fong speak about managing an ensemble cast of diverse ages, nationalities and languages.

“...When you finally bring it from idea to stage, when it is finally performed, is a beautiful moment in time in space, it's precious, because it's transient...to be able to live that moment with the audience and the team when it finally gets on stage, that, for me, is what is really special about making a theatre production, because it takes a village.”
