| book description |

An introduction to the mysterious theater role of a dramaturg by a legend in the field â€œThis book is marvelous. . . . Fascinating. . . . An absolute joy to read.â€â€”Gil Roth, Virtual MemoriesÂ podcast Anne Cattaneo was among the first Americans to fill the role of dramaturg, one of theaterâ€™s best kept secrets. A combination of theater artist, scholar, researcher, play advocate, editor, and writerâ€™s friend, it is the job of a dramaturg to â€œreflect light back on the elements that are already in play,â€ while bringing a work of theater to life. Cattaneo traces the field from its beginnings in the eighteenth century to the present and chronicles the multitude and variety of tasks a dramaturg undertakes before, during, and after a production is brought to the stage. Using detailed stories from her work with theater artists such as Tom Stoppard, Wendy Wasserstein, Robert Wilson, Shi-Zheng Chen, and Sarah Ruhl, as well as the discovery of a â€œlostâ€ play by Langston Hughes and Zora Neale Hurston, Cattaneo provides an invaluable manual to those studying, working in, and interested in this most fascinating profession.
