Abstract
I set out to write a SIP that would be an overview of stage combat- both a
tool bag for student fight directors in the future and an analysis of my experience as
the assistant fight director on this show from start to finish: history, sword making,
choreography and direction. I drew from readings, practical experience, and any
personal accounts I could get from people who had experience with stage combat in
professional theaters. I spent three full months thinking about swords for at least
eight hours per day- and I wouldn1t have had it any other way. All in all; it was a
pretty spectacular ride.
