Inhaltsangabe

This book uses evidence from theatrical hand-books, performance practice and drama training to examine academic and theatrical approaches to the Shakespearean text. It includes detailed analysis of the structural properties of the verse, in particular short lines, shared lines, end-stopping and enjambment in a range of Shakespearean texts.

Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

"Abigail Rokison's work is both fascinating and revelatory. It makes me hungry and impatient to return to Shakespeare armed with new insight and fresh inspiration. ... As an actor what Rokison has to say is both helpful and inspiring. Everyone tackling Shakespeare in the rehearsal room needs to look at this. ... There is so much received opinion spouted at actors in the name of Shakespeare. This work helps to puncture some of the more puffed up pomposities and give actors a fresh insight into their craft."
-David Tennant
