Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the history of Shakespeare's plays on the English stage. Covering many years of theatrical presentations and acting styles, the author traces a fascinating, and at times, unexpected path through the history of adaptations, revivals and changing fashion. The author demonstrates how Shakespeare's work was adapted over time to fit the evolving tastes and sensibilities of different erasâ"from the relatively unadorned Elizabethan and Jacobean stages, to the ornate, elaborately costumed theatre of the Restoration. Through individual actor studies, the book also highlights the lasting impact of the great Shakespearean performers, like Burbage and Betterton, on how the plays were interpreted. The book offers a unique perspective on the close relationship between Shakespeare's work and the changing theatre landscape of the past few centuries. Its insightful analysis of the motivations and techniques of various adaptations and the actors who brought them to life, makes for a rich exploration of the history of one of England's greatest cultural institutions.
