The Methuen Drama Amateur Theatre Handbook by Keith Arrowsmith
The Amateur Theatre Handbook is the essential handbook for anyone involved in amateur dramatics. Keith Arrowsmith guides the reader through the potential pitfalls of putting on a production, from preliminary planning and choosing a play, through stage management, to first night. There are sections on staging a show, group organisation and special performances, covering legal rights and obligations, health and safety, budgeting, copyright law, choosing a venue, stage management and front-of-house, plus a comprehensive reference section. Using personal anecdotes, checklists and clear guidelines, this is a comprehensive and accessible handbook for all aspects of amateur production.
Keith Arrowsmith graduated from Keele University in 1992, qualifying as a solicitor in 1995. He specialises in, amongst others, entertainment law, intellectual property and cultural industry transactions. He has been involved in amateur dramatics for the past thirteen years, working closely with gro ups in East Anglia, the North Midlands and South Yorkshire.
