Woodruff also looks into other theatrical elements to an event, such as plot, character, staging, and space. “This book points to things I have never noticed before,” Davidson said. Woodruff’s book caught Davidson’s eye on an ACTF (American College Theatre Festival) trip to Lawrence, KS. Davidson said the subtitle to the book in the university bookstore drew him in to read more. This book shows that the act of watching theater and being watched are parts of theater in a variety of events. The Brown Bag Book Talk begins at noon in the lower level of the Gordon B. Olson Library on the MSU campus. For more information, contact conrad.davidson@ minotstateu.edu or 858-3159.
