Produktbeschreibung

What can the Globe Theatre tell us about performing Shakespeare?

Unearthing Shakespeare is the first book to consider what the Globe, today's replica of Shakespeare's theatre, can contribute to a practical understanding of Shakespeare's plays. Valerie Clayman Pye reconsiders the material evidence of Early Modern theatre-making, presenting clear, accessible discussions of historical theatre practice; stages and staging; and the relationship between actor and audience. She relays this into a series of training exercises for actors at all levels.

From 'Shakesball' and 'Telescoping' to elliptical energy training and the radiating box, this is a rich set of resources for anyone looking to tackle Shakespeare with authenticity and confidence.
