* This book curates new thinking through interviews with designers who are artists, producers, professors, partners, parents, and collaborators. This book is a place to observe how one career can contain many possibilities.

* Would be recommended reading in scenic design, stage craft and theatre design courses. At the majority of universities in the United States there are theatrical design courses for undergraduate students.

* The closest competitors focus more on a 'basics' approach to set design. This book is not only relevant to students but also early career and more established industry professionals.
