| Description | As my introduction to Part 3 has already suggested, vis-à-vis Christopher Innes and Maria Shevtsova's (2013) useful mapping of dominant directorial approaches, it would appear that Neilson's directorial practice would find perhaps its most ready fit with the category of directors who emphasise group devising, given his pronounced collaboration with actors. That this fit is far from straightforward or uncontentious is equally suggested by my discussion in this part's introduction of how Neilson does not follow established devising protocol. Presented with this tension, this chapter will follow the pertinent line of enquiry outlined by Innes and Shevtsova, where it is the performers as a group who evolve the material, develop their own styles of presentation and/or structure the production, the role of the director changes. In such a context, to what extent does a director control or guide the process? What is the director's function? (2013: 218) Book Name: Contemporary Rehearsal Practice |
