As with all books in the Theatre Arts Workbook series, Directing with the Michael Chekhov Technique will include online video exercises, “Teaching Tip” boxes which streamline the book for teachers, and a useful Further Reading section.Directing with the Michael Chekhov Technique is the perfect guide to the production process for any director.
