    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE SCHOOL OF THEATRE DISCOVERIES OF A DEVELOPING DIRECTOR: AN EXPLORATION OF THE ART AND CRAFT OF DIRECTING FOR MUSICAL THEATRE ROBERT MAXON MONTGOMERY SPRING 2014 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in Musical Theatre with honors in Musical Theatre Reviewed and approved* by the following: Cary L. Libkin Professor of Theatre, Head of BFA Musical Theatre & MFA Directing Programs Thesis Supervisor Susan Russell Associate Professor of Theatre Honors Advisor * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. i ABSTRACT The craft of modern theatrical direction has been well documented by a great number of experienced directors since its inception over one hundred and fifty years ago. However, there are far fewer, if any, published examples of a nascent director’s discovery and exploration of this art. This written thesis is the documentation of a young director’s experience leading up to the rehearsals of his premiere production. It explores the basic principles of directing, the process of developing an approach for the realization of a production from the selection of a show through the end of pre-production work, and the direct application of all these elements to a production of the musical john & jen by Andrew Lippa and Tom Greenwald. ii TABLE OF CONTENTS Acknowledgements.................................................................................................................. iii Chapter 1 “It’s All in How You Set
