5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, 15 Nov 2006

By	Mr. F. L. Dunkin Wedd - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)

This is an excellent account of the Globe's project to perform Shakespeare in 'authentic' accents of the period. Crystal gives fascinating insights into how he researched what Elizabethan pronunciation might have been, and writes entertainingly and informatively about the experience of working with the actors and the plays.

Crystal writes well, and if the results of the 'Original Pronunciation' performances at the Globe are any guide, his 'Elizabethan' accents are surprisingly easy to understand.
