preparation can benefit from lateral thinking and stepping outside the

explorations (including the deliberate side-tracking up dead-ends) can help to
excite and tantalize viewers’ interest. A director’s approach is by definition

collaboration between the traditional theater disciplines of playwriting,
acting and directing. What are the protocols of collaboration in rehearsal, and
the development of a new text and performance? Central to this is the dialogue
between actors, directors and writers during rehearsals, and how conflicts are
resolved, and what professional behavior really means. This involves ‘active
listening’, where there is the need for close attention to overall inputs as
well as those to individual scenes. This needs to be continuous, over
successive revisions of particular scenes and whether and why they are or are
not working. Thus there is the need for continually taking notes and sharing
feedback with others.
