Theatre in the Round

Stephen, Joseph

Barrie and Rockcliff

All therapeutic approaches employed in counselling and psychotherapy are based upon particular models or assumptions about people, their nature and what causes them to develop psychological problems or 'psychopathology'. Psychopathology and Therapeutic Approaches offers students and trainee practitioners with little or no prior knowledge a concise and much-needed introduction to psychopathology and the different forms of psychological assistance available. All the major models of psychopathology are discussed, along with the therapeutic approaches they inform, including: *psychoanalytic and psychodynamic, *behavioural and cognitive, and *humanistic approaches. In recognition of the non-psychological influences on people's lives, the book also introduces readers to a number of additional important but often over-looked approaches, including the biomedical, the transpersonal and the socio-cultural. Key practice issues, such as the role of scientific method and research in counselling and psychotherapy, the importance of evidence based practice, and the development and implications of eclecticism and integration, are outlined and evaluated. With its accessible style and captivating use of case examples, Psychopathology and Therapeutic Approaches will appeal to students studying abnormal or applied psychology within health studies, nursing, social work and psychology courses, as well as to all newcomers to counselling and psychotherapy .

In this comprehensive examination of the history and techniques of in-the-round staging, Stephen Joseph unites scholarship with a practical distillation of his own production experience in an attempt to document the myriad possibilities of arena staging in its complexity. Each of the elements which comprise this form of theatre is dealt with in detail, from the conversion of irregular halls through the use of portable bleachers to the construction of new arena theatres; from the selection of plays to the most minute production detail. Problems of sight-line in seating, problems of lighting, blocking, set design and decor are discussed with accompanying diagrams. The concomitant conditions of unaccustomed freedom and precision of movement receive lengthy treatment as they affect actor, director and stage manager during the course of rehearsal for in-the-round performance. The result is a volume of information and suggestion which should prove useful to amateurs, students, professionals and playgoers alike. The book is illustrated with the author's own drawings, sketches and diagrams, and with photographs.
