After the Fall by Arthur Miller: A Dramaturgical Packet for the University Theatre Guild's Fall Production
This project was created for use by student directors, technicians, and actors throughout the rehearsal and production process.

Dramaturgs contextualize the world of a play; establish connections among the text, actors, and audience; offer opportunities for playwrights; generate projects and programs; and create conversations about plays in their communities.
