From the aftermath of World War II to the convulsions of Brexit,
festivals have deployed Shakespeare as a model of inclusive and
progressive theatre to seek cultural solutions to Europe's
multi-faceted crises. Shakespeare on European Festival Stages is
the first book to chart Shakespeare's presence at continental
European festivals. It examines the role these festivals play in
European socio-cultural exchanges, and the impact festivals make on
the wider production and circulation of staged Shakespeare across
the continent. This collection offers authoritative, lively and
informed accounts of the production of Shakespeare at the following
festivals: the Avignon Festival and Le Printemps des comediens in
Montpellier (France), the Almagro festival (Spain), Shakespeare at
Four Castles (Czech Republic and Slovakia), the International
Shakespeare Festival in Craiova (Romania), the Shakespeare
festivals in Elsinore (Denmark), Gdansk (Poland), Gyula (Hungary),
Itaka (Serbia), Neuss (Germany), Patalenitsa (Bulgaria), Rome and
Verona (Italy). Shakespeare on European Festival Stages is
essential reading for students, scholars and practitioners
interested in Shakespeare in performance, in translation and in a
post-national Shakespeare that knows no borders and belongs to all
of Europe.
