This soft cover version of A Practical Guide to Greener Theatre: Introduce Sustainability Into Your Productions from Focal Press details how a theatrical production can protect the environment while meeting the challenge of mounting an environmentally-friendly show with limited time, resources, and information.
The book not only gives you the information you need to make greener decisions, but provides you with practical, workable solutions. You will learn how to assess and improve every production area, from costuming and painting, lighting, and technical direction, to administrative offices and the rehearsal process. Checklists, examples of successful strategies, and step-by-step instructions will show you how to identify areas where manageable, sustainable changes can make your productions greener, and advice from working professionals, with experience greening their own productions will leave you confident that your processes are environmentally sound. Even non-technical people who find themselves responsible for supervising productions will find green solutions that can be instituted with a staff of volunteers or students. Remember: every step toward sustainability is a step forward.
