Shakespeare in Action Résumé

Shakespeare in Action: 30 Theatre Makers on their Practice Dr. Jaq Bessell (Guildford School of Acting, UK)

- How do actors prepare a script of a Shakespeare play for performance? - Where do directors begin? - What do Shakespeare's plays offer a designer or choreographer? - How do the cast and creative team work together in rehearsals? With Shakespeare in Action, Jaq Bessell presents thirty interviews with theatre practitioners from some of the larger producing theatres in the UK and the US, exploring the various processes which bring Shakespeare's plays to the stage. Actors, designers, directors and choreographers, including Eve Best, Bunny Christie, Gregory Doran and Lindsay Kemp, share their collective wisdom and experience, and reveal how training and practice informs productions of Shakespeare plays. These first-hand accounts provide students of Shakespeare in performance and practitioners with a critical toolkit with which to study the plays in performance.

Shakespeare in Action Avis

An engaging resource for anyone with an interest in Shakespeare performance, the politics of who can speak Shakespeare, how to speak Shakespeare, whom Shakespeare belongs to, and the alchemic transformation from words on a page, to actions on a stage. * SKENE Journal of Theatre and Drama Studies *
There is something for everybody in Shakespeare in Action. The book is very much designed to help a wide range of those with an interest in the subject, not merely actors and theatre makers ... [readers will] learn a great deal about the ways in which actors and those offstage approach Shakespearean production today. * British Theatre Guide *
