Choreographing Shakespeare presents a hitherto unexplored history
of the choreographers and performers who have created dance
adaptations of Shakespeare. This book investigates forty dance
works in genres such as ballet, modern dance, and hip-hop, produced
between 1940 and 2016 by choreographers in Britain, America, and
Europe, all of which use Shakespeare's plays and Sonnets as their
source material. By combining scholarly analysis of these
productions with practice-based conversations from six contemporary
choreographers, Klett offers both breadth of coverage and in-depth
analysis of how Shakespeare's poetic language is translated into
the usually wordless medium of dance, and shows exactly how these
dance adaptations move beyond the Shakespearean texts to engage
with musical and choreographic influences. Ideal for students of
Shakespeare and Dance Studies, Choreographing Shakespeare explores
how dance adaptations strive to design legible and intelligible
stories, while ultimately celebrating the beauty of pure movement.
