Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Working on a New Play: A Play Development Handbook for Actors, Directors, Designers, and Playwrights (Limelight) (Paperback)
This is an excellent work for those who are just starting out and for those who have been writing. I like the fact that it covers a variety of areas pertaining to plays.
