This is the first book to explore the rich range of research and development (R&D) practices in contemporary British theatremaking. Featuring chapters by internationally recognised researchers, as well as interviews with innovative theatremakers, this book analyses the work of some of the most exciting theatre companies in Britain. This collection draws on conversations with Selina Thompson, Rosie Elnile, Third Angel and many others, offering hints and tips for your own creative practice. The book argues passionately for the funding of R&D, recognising its enormous significance to British theatre-making processes.
