renowned actor Dame Judi Dench's SHAKESPEARE: The Man Who Pays The
Rent - a witty, insightful journey through the plays and tales of
our beloved Shakespeare 'A MAGICAL LOVE LETTER TO SHAKESPEARE' Sir
Kenneth Branagh __________ Taking a curtain call with a live snake
in her wig... Cavorting naked through the Warwickshire countryside
painted green... Acting opposite a child with a pumpkin on his
head... These are just a few of the things Dame Judi Dench has done
in the name of Shakespeare. For the very first time, Judi opens up
about every Shakespearean role she has played throughout her
seven-decade career, from Lady Macbeth and Titania to Ophelia and
Cleopatra. In a series of intimate conversations with actor &
director Brendan O'Hea, she guides us through Shakespeare's plays
with incisive clarity, revealing the secrets of her rehearsal
process and inviting us to share in her triumphs, disasters, and
backstage shenanigans. Interspersed with vignettes on audiences,
critics, company spirit and rehearsal room etiquette, she serves up
priceless revelations on everything from the craft of speaking in
verse to her personal interpretations of some of Shakespeare's most
famous scenes, all brightened by her mischievous sense of humour,
striking level of honesty and a peppering of hilarious anecdotes,
many of which have remained under lock and key until now.
Instructive and witty, provocative and inspiring, this is
ultimately Judi's love letter to Shakespeare, or rather, The Man
Who Pays The Rent. __________ Pre-order SHAKESPEARE: THE MAN WHO
PAYS THE RENT by Dame Judi Dench now!
