Alice Through the Proscenium is THE traveler's guide to the strange world of theater set design.

Written with wry humor and based on the author's wide experience in regional and civic theater at all budget levels, Alice takes the reader step-by-step through the process first reading the script; then design, drawing, and modeling; into set building, painting, and dressing; and right through to final strike. Along the way, this slim volume explains working with the rest of the characters - the design and production teams of director, producers, designers, builders, and actors. Even how to deal with critics. Because not all the drama is on-stage.

Filled with examples and down-to-earth suggestions, Alice is a resource for both new and seasoned designers... who may find themselves laughing out loud. (Not all the humor is on-stage either.) Theaters, producers, and directors will find insight into theater sets and their designers.

Alice Through the Proscenium more scenic set design eBook Clare Floyd DeVries

A nice overview of the world of scenography and a great introduction. Not too in depth about the various topics but written in a witty and personal way.

This is a book whose time has finally come. When my son became involved in set design in high school, I looked for books that would show him the entire process. I found no such book. Searching the net, I found Clare DeVries' website and it showed what I was looking for perfectly. Beginning with early discussions, moving to general layout, going to sketches, final drawings, revisions (based on how the set really worked) and then photographs of the final, beautiful, award-winning sets. That work is now in a book. It is the one you have been waiting for - buy it now.

Posted March 18, 2011, 1132 AM EST I have both a hard copy, signed, and a iBook copy. I am a set designer and this book is a true, what to expect, helpful guide for new and veteran designers. You get advice in this book that school text books can't give you. I own many books like 'How to Design Stage Scenery volume 1 of 2' yes, those books are helpful and I do read them but this book has real life examples and advice that you can apply towards your project(s). The charm in this book are the quotes used from Alice in Wonderland like "Don't go splashing paint over me like that!" "I couldn't help it." The handy thing about the Nook or iBook copy is you can reference this quickly when you are on set. I myself have pulled out my iPad and problem solved on the 'To Kill a Mockingbird' set just the other week. So what are you waiting for get your copy, paint, draw, learn and remember to have fun!
As a designer who spends a lot of time working with students, I have found the book to be an exciting potential resource in the theater classroom.
Taking away the clouds that often surround the process of what we do, this book offers to the point insight and equal amounts of wit.
Whether you are an old pro or just starting out, this is a must read.
A nice overview of the world of scenography and a great introduction. Not too in depth about the various topics but written in a witty and personal way.
