In this book, dramaturg Tom Bryant shares with readers and writers his insights into the process of historical adaptation.The book uses case studies from Bryant's collaborations with playwrights on successful Broadway and regional productions to work through the fundamental questions of historical adaptation: Why do you want to adapt history? For what purpose? What is your approach? How does that approach affect the portrayal of events? How does that choice by the playwright and the dramaturg then determine the framing and focus in the story, the selection of the key events and the choice of characters? What is the meaning you want the audience to take away from the events? How is your adaptation of past events relevant to contemporary times? In addition, the author explores the moral and ethical responsibilities involved for the dramaturg and the playwright in the adaptation of history and how issues of diversity, equity and inclusion impact the presentation of historical material.This is an indispensable resource for anyone whose craft brings them to the task of adapting historical material for the stage—in postgraduate work, teaching or professional practice.

The True Lives of My Chemical Romance is the definitive biography of the most adored rock band this century, a story of self-belief and the pursuit of dreams.My Chemical Romance were the most significant band in alternative rock for the last decade. Inspirational, original, stunningly creative, they forged an extraordinary connection with their fans.Author Tom Bryant was given unparalleled access to the band over the years and now he draws on interviews with Gerard Way and his brother Mikey, Ray Toro and Frank Iero, as well as friends and associates, to bring their stories to life.In this unauthorized biography, he takes us behind the scenes from their very first gig in front of thirty kids in New Jersey – the Ways downing beer to calm their nerves – to international arena-storming superstardom. He sheds light on the personal demons the bandmates battled and the haunted recording session that resulted in the brilliance of The Black Parade. He also explores the genesis of their music, the constant reinvention that culminated in the visual splendour of Danger Days: The True Lives Of The Fabulous Killjoys, and the strains that led to their split in 2013.Insightful and revealing, this is perfect book for fans old and new.
