Shortlisted for the Theatre Book Prize 2020


How do you decide what stories an audience should hear? How do you make your theatre stand out in a crowded and intensely competitive marketplace? How do you make your building a home for artistic risk and innovation, while ensuring the books are balanced? It is the artistic director's job to answer all these questions, and many more. Yet, despite the central role that these people play in the modern theatre industry, very little has been written about what they do or how they do it.




In The Art of the Artistic Director, Christopher Haydon (former artistic director of the Gate Theatre, 'London's most relentlessly ambitious theatre' Time Out) compiles a fascinating set of interviews that get to the heart of what it is to occupy this unique role. He speaks to twenty of the most prominent and successful artistic directors in the US and UK, including- Oskar Eustis (Public Theater, New York), Diane Paulus (American


Repertory Theater, Boston), Rufus Norris (National Theatre, London) and Vicky Featherstone (Royal Court Theatre, London), uncovering the essential skills and abilities that go into making an accomplished artistic director.




The only book of its kind available, The Art of the Artistic Director includes a foreword by Michael Grandage, former artistic director of the Sheffield Crucible and the Donmar Warehouse in London.

Timberland Men’s Genuine Leather Wallet – Nice Quality for the Price
Color: Navy Blue
This wallet was actually a gift, so I can’t really say how durable it is long term or whether it completely met expectations over time or whether it was returned. However, when I first received it, it definitely looked and felt like a quality wallet. The genuine leather had a nice appearance, the stitching looked well made, and it had a clean and classic style. The price also seemed very reasonable for what you get. Overall, based on first impressions, it appears to be a solid wallet and would make a nice gift option for someone.

Fits my needs, and ID folio is removable
Color: Navy Blue
Just the right size, number of card and cash pockets for the way I like my wallets. Well-crafted, looks good. And, bonus points, the ID part slips right out of it, so I can use the slimmer wallet. If you want the ID part, then being abel to slide it out and present it without the wallet is probably good. I trust that the RFID blocking, a good feature, works. I have no need to test it, though.

Great as a gift
Color: Dark Brown
It is an excellent blend of style, quality, and practicality. The leather feels premium right out of the box, soft yet durable, and has that classic Timberland look that ages well over time. It’s slim enough to carry comfortably in a pocket while still offering plenty of space for cards, cash, and an ID. The RFID protection is a big plus and adds peace of mind without adding bulk. The passcase design makes it easy to access frequently used cards, and everything stays secure and well-organized. Stitching and overall construction are top-notch, making it feel like a wallet that will last for years. Overall, this is a
