Filled with dozens of photos; illustrations; and technical diagrams; Todd Muffatti's Creative and Successful High School Set Design guides theatre teachers through the preparation and design steps necessary to build an appropriate and effective stage set. Using his 40-year career as a professional set designer and university professor; Muffatti shares tips from his creative process and offers practical ideas about how to approach and accomplish imaginative set designs for high school theatre. Creative and Successful High School Set Design discusses the spatial relationship of the auditorium and stage; the factors to be considered when choosing a script; and the research necessary to arrive at a proper visual metaphor for a production. Muffatti covers many design style options and creative approaches that don't require extensive building expertise; large amounts of time; or great expense. He shows how a small stock of basic scenery can be used to creatively serve multiple set designs with minimal additions. Muffatti outlines the skills involved in the design process -- from sketching and drafting; to set dressing and model building -- and provides illustrations to offer further guidance. Creative and Successful High School Set Design instills in high school drama teachers the imaginative; practical; and safe set designing habits that will help lift their students' dramatic performances to their highest levels of achievement.

The Paper Birds invited young people to ask them anything and now they're trying to come up with the answers.

Inspired by the magazine problem pages they read growing up in the 90s and 00s, in Ask Me Anything, The Paper Birds become the agony aunts. Using the real letters sent to the company, this verbatim show explores what young people think, want and worry about today.

Set in teenage bedrooms, this is a play about what different generations can learn from each other whist celebrating teenagers, grandparents and everyone in between, who, like us, are still figuring it all out.

Pat Moore often thinks about growing up in New Hampshire with seven siblings -- five were younger than her. Those memories have evolved into a lifetime fondness for children.

She has adored being a mother, stepmother, and grandmother. Pat has seven grandchildren, many nieces, nephews, great-nieces, and great-nephews.

She is writing a series of Happy Town books to guide youngsters (and adults) about thinking better (happier & wiser) thoughts, acting with love & kindness, and enjoying the magic that surrounds us every day.

Pat has always loved books and writing. She enjoys participating with her friends in writer groups and book clubs.

She holds a BA from the University of Maryland and an MS from George Washington University. She and her husband established PMR Communications Group in 2003. They live in Virginia.
