Abstract
Directing the children's theatre (or TYA) actor calls for special psychological strategies, especially during the performance run, when actors face their uninhibited, unpredictable child audiences. Research informed by direct, post-performance interviews with child audiences can test theoretical assumptions and assist directors in their subsequent, practical work with actors.
