Shakespeare wrote for a theater in which the audience was
understood to be, and at times invited to be, active and
participatory. How have Shakespeare's audiences, from the sixteenth
century to the present, responded to that invitation? In what ways
have consumers across different cultural contexts, periods, and
platforms engaged with the performance of Shakespeare's plays? What
are some of the different approaches taken by scholars today in
thinking about the role of Shakespeare's audiences and their
relationship to performance? The chapters in this collection use a
variety of methods and approaches to explore the global history of
audience experience of Shakespearean performance in theater, film,
radio, and digital media. The approaches that these contributors
take look at Shakespeare's audiences through a variety of lenses,
including theater history, dramaturgy, film studies, fan studies,
popular culture, and performance. Together, they provide both close
studies of particular moments in the history of Shakespeare's
audiences and a broader understanding of the various, often
complex, connections between and among those audiences across the
long history of Shakespearean performance.
