The Contemporary Circus Handbook: A Guide to Creating, Funding, Producing, Organizing and Touring for the 21st Century is a guide to creating theatrical performance shows, built on interviews with dozens of creators who have made shows-big and small-throughout their careers. The author's circus background is used as an example to practical steps for any freelance company's operations: from applying for funding, building a team, planning workshops and residencies, to characteristics of successful shows. These lessons are applicable to circus, dance and theater as well as most performing arts. Whether it's your first foray into creating your own major endeavor-or you've got a couple of creations under your belt-you're sure to find advice to improve your process and bring your dream show to life. Includes a foreword by Shana Carroll, co-founder of Les 7 doigts de la main (The Seven Fingers).
