For almost forty years The Shakespearean Stage has been considered
the liveliest, most reliable and most entertaining overview of
Shakespearean theatre in its own time. It is the only authoritative
book that describes all the main features of the original staging
of Shakespearean drama in one volume: the acting companies and
their practices, the playhouses, the staging and the audiences.
Thoroughly revised and updated, this fourth edition contains fresh
materials about how specific plays by Shakespeare were first
staged, and provides new information about the companies that
staged them and their playhouses. The book incorporates everything
that has been discovered in recent years about the early modern
stage, including the archaeology of the Rose and the Globe. Also
included is an invaluable appendix, listing all the plays known to
have been performed at particular playhouses and by specific
companies.
