5.0 out of 5 stars Great source of info on stage terminology, January 4, 1997

By A Customer

This review is from: Theatre Backstage from A to Z (Paperback)

Know what a GOBO is? Need a refresher on painting techniques? Or need to know how to light your stage or build special scenery? It's in this book!! An excellent resource book for amateur and professional alike. You'll find yourself referring back to it many, many times during the course of producing a play. I wouldn't want to be without it and recommend it to directors, producers and anyone involved in theatre!!

Needed this for a class, came very quick and in very good condition. Also, much cheaper on here than in the campus bookstore!
