Contemporary culture is obsessed with the past. And contemporary
performance is obsessed with Shakespeare. Why does Shakespeare so
often perform the nostalgic role of reviving a better past for
modern audiences? And what do radical rewritings of Shakespeare's
plays say both to and about their audiences? This is an inquiry
into how Shakespeare is reproduced today. It looks at the enduring
influence he has on present-day performance, and questions how
inter-cultural and cross-cultural productions reconfigure him for
alternative performances. An attempt is made to speak across many
divides - from literature to theatre, from theory to practice.
