Product Description
Review
?Although the literature includes many books that contain more information about the lives and working arrangements of English actors in this period, this reviewer can think of none that present the material in such a clear and interesting manner. This volume belongs in every Shakespeare collection. Essential. All libraries, academic and public.?-Choice
Product Description
Much has been conjectured about Shakespeare's life and career, and numerous biographies have been written about him. But while much is known about the Elizabethan theatre, little has been done to examine Shakespeare in relation to his acting company. This volume investigates Shakespeare as a member of his acting company, dates and casts all the plays presented by them from 1594 to 1614, and explores the effects of the actors on his writing. In doing so, it attempts to provide a better understanding of Shakespeare's life in drama and the creation and staging of his plays.
