Building upon a legacy of theatrical activity at UNC dating back to 1918, when the appointment of Professor Koch in the Department of English led to the formation of the Carolina Playmakers, Tom Haas and Arthur Housman envisioned a professional company integrated with an academic department at a major research university. That combination of professional artistic achievement coupled with the highest quality theatrical training has characterized PlayMakers Repertory Company from the outset.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThen as now, the core of the resident company--faculty who are both teachers and practitioners working in tandem with the graduate students in the Department of Dramatic Arts' three MFA programs--is constantly supplemented by the best directors, designers, and performers working today. Undergraduates learn from faculty who move back and forth between the classroom and the stage, shops, and workrooms, with the knowledge gained in one realm sparking creativity in another. Graduate students in acting, costume production, and technical production receive professional training during the day from teachers who become their artistic collaborators at night, both off- and on-stage.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith six essays, more than eighty images, and four appendices that list productions, faculty, MFA recipients, and administrative leadership, this book richly documents a beloved and widely admired dramatic arts institution. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Bobbi Owen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1469665468\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781469665467\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Unc Department of Dramatic Art\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/01\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 168\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.90lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.90h x 7.70w x 0.40d","brand":"Bobbi Owen","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44047641542911,"sku":"9781469665467","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_f2d33915-7f73-4423-87dd-53cd14bd623b.jpg?v=1684991385","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/playmakers-repertory-company-bobbi-owen-9781469665467","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
