Recenzii

"This book is a useful read for various levels of students, both in costume design and choreography. It’s also extremely helpful for anyone rooted in theatre who finds themselves working in dance. I learned a lot about various design approaches, choreographers’ working styles, and the kinds of questions to ask. I’d recommend this book for the classroom and personal use."
