What follows is a description of my process directing The Glass Menagerie by Tennessee Williams.
I’ve made an effort to track the journey I undertook starting from my earliest encounter with the play and the selection of the story as a thesis project. This document contains my initial script analysis, notes from design meeting collaborations, casting decisions, general research approaches, the rehearsal process, performance insights, and evaluations after completion. This document will also provide, intermittently, additional reflections on my critical attitudes towards this play and production, as well as self-assessments related to notable lessons, successes, failures, and discoveries pertinent to my field of study: the art of directing. Moreover, selected entries from my personal journal which was maintained for eight months during this creative process will provide supplemental material for further reading at the conclusion
