  Cosimo de' Medici: The Life and...

  Most historians credit the city-state of Florence as the place that started and developed the Italian Renaissance, a process carried out through the patronage and commission of artists during the late 12th century. If Florence has received its due credit, much of it belongs to the House of Medici, the family dynasty of Florence that ruled at the height of the Renaissance. The dynasty held such influence that some of its family members even became pope, and it all started with a banker colloquially known as Cosimo the Elder.  
  	Cosimo’s trajectory was nothing short of incredible. In the spring of 1433, he sat in a small stone cell high in the tower of the Palazzo della Signoria, listening to the bells of the city he had spent his life serving and waiting to learn whether he was to be beheaded. He was 43 and held no public title of consequence, commanded no army, and had taken pains for most of his life to appear as one prosperous citizen among many. Nonetheless, the men who then governed Florence had decided that he was too dangerous to leave at liberty, and for several days the question before the city was not whether Cosimo possessed power but whether the republic dared to kill him for it.  
  	Instead of being executed, within 18 months, he returned from exile to a city that received him as a deliverer, and for the 30 years that followed, he ruled Florence more completely than any king ruled a kingdom, despite never assuming a crown, a permanent office, or a public claim to authority. He governed through a network of friendships, debts, favors, and quiet arrangements so subtly that foreign observers struggled to describe it, but what they saw was plain enough even when the mechanisms by which Cosimo maintained control were not. The peace and the wars of Italy answered to his judgment, and the powerful leaders across the peninsula carried their business to his house, settling across a banker’s table the questions other cities settled in council chambers and throne rooms.

  Our most brilliant, fearless and creative women directors open the door on their craft, discussing their work in the theatre in intimate and illuminating detail.
  Through a series of fascinating conversations with many of the leading talents working on British stages, Running the Room explores what it takes to succeed in the field, and how each director approaches the work in their own way.
  Each interview focuses on a particular facet of the director's practice, examining not just the 'how' – how to talk to actors, how to create the right rehearsal environment, how to handle cuts and previews, how to work with a living playwright – but also the 'why': why certain approaches work better than others, why there's no 'right' way to direct a play, and why work in theatre anyway?
  As this passionate, inspiring book shows, there are myriad ways to be a theatre director. For aspiring or current directors, it will give you the confidence to be uniquely yourself, develop your own approach, and create the work you want to make. For creatives in other disciplines, it will provide insight into directors' processes, along with examples of successful collaboration. And for anyone who loves theatre, this is an unparalleled first-hand account of how brilliant theatre is made – direct from those making it.
