Shakespeare and the Power of Performance: Stage and Page in the Elizabethan Theatre
Weimann, Robert (University of California, Irvine)
Bridging the gap between today's page- and stage-centred interpretations of Shakespeare's works, Weimann and Bruster explore how the playwright responded to the competing claims of acting and writing in the Elizabethan era. Focusing on the trio of clown, fool, and cross-dressed boy actor, they demonstrate how Shakespeare explored issues of performance.
