Week 4 Assignments

Productions (due noon Friday, August 1)

5% Production History
Identify 5 productions of your play. For each, provide:

• venue (theatre), city, state
• run dates
• producing agent or producer, director
• designers
• actors in lead roles
• your own annotation or description about what best characterizes this production or what makes it notable or memorable (this needs to be in complete sentences in your own words--no copy and paste for this)

5% Reviews
Find one review for each of these productions (5 total productions, 5 total reviews). For each review, provide:

• title of article, author, print source/publication, date
• full text (if it's really long, just include the most interesting parts)
• citation and link

5% Production Photos
Find 5 photos for 5 different productions of your play (5 total photos, 5 total productions). It's okay if these are not the same productions as in your history. For each, provide a caption that includes:

• producing theatre, city, state
• year
• director
• designers' names (and areas)
• and an active link

5% Production Designs
Find 5 total images (plates, renderings, thumbnails, elevations, digital illustrations, etc.) representing the design process for one or more of these productions. Yes, all 5 may be from the same production, but a variety of productions would be more interesting. For each, identify:

• designer(s)
• producing theatre, city, state
• director
• year
• and an active link
