"""Teaching Introduction to Theatrical Design: A Process Based Syllabus in Costumes, Scenery, and Lighting is a full-colour book, filled with illustrated examples of how to effectively teach an introductory course in design. The authors have weighed mastery of the design process heavier than any specific area of design. I would highly recommend this book."" - Catherine I. Mantooth, Lee University, USA."
