The Routledge Companion to Directors' Shakespeare is a major
collaborative book about plays in performance. Thirty authoritative
accounts describe in illuminating detail how some of theatre's most
talented directors have brought Shakespeare's texts to the stage.
Each chapter has a revealing story to tell as it explores a new and
revitalising approach to the most familiar works in the English
language. A must-have work of reference for students of both
Shakespeare and theatre, this book presents some of the most
acclaimed productions of the last hundred years in a variety of
cultural and political contexts. Each entry describes a director's
own theatrical vision, and methods of rehearsal and production.
These studies chart the extraordinary feats of interpretation and
innovation that have given Shakespeare's plays enduring life in the
theatre. Notable entries include: Ingmar Bergman * Peter Brook *
Declan Donnellan * Tyrone Guthrie * Peter Hall * Fritz Kortner *
Robert Lepage * Joan Littlewood * Ninagawa Yukio * Joseph Papp *
Roger Planchon * Max Reinhardt * Giorgio Strehler * Deborah Warner
* Orson Welles * Franco Zeffirelli
