Yukio Ninagawa (1935-2016) was Japan's foremost director of
Shakespeare whose productions were acclaimed around the world. His

Japanese iconography and its striking fusion of Eastern and Western
theatre traditions. Over a career spanning six decades, Ninagawa
directed 31 of Shakespeare's plays, many of them, including Hamlet,
on multiple occasions. His productions of Macbeth, The Tempest,
Pericles, Twelfth Night and Cymbeline became seminal events in
world Shakespeare production during the last 30 years. This is the
first English-language book dedicated exclusively to Ninagawa's
work. Featuring an overview of his extraordinary output, this study
considers his Shakespearean work within the context of his overall
career. Individual chapters cover Ninagawa's approach Shakespeare
and Greek tragedy, in particular his landmark productions of
Macbeth and Medea, and his eight separate productions of Hamlet.
The volume includes a detailed analysis of the Sai-no-Kuni
Shakespeare Series - in which Ninagawa set out to stage all of
Shakespeare's plays in his hometown of Saitama, north of Tokyo.
Written by Conor Hanratty, who studied with Ninagawa for over a
year, it offers a unique and unprecedented glimpse into the work
and approach of one of the world's great theatre directors.
