Description

This influential study examines how performances of Shakespeare reshape the meanings of the plays beyond the text itself. Sarah Werner argues that actor training, company management, and gender politics fundamentally shape both production creation and interpretation. Drawing on The Royal Shakespeare Company as a primary case study, the book explores the training methods of Cicely Berry and Patsy Rodenburg, traces the history of the RSC Women's Group, and examines the work of director Gale Edwards. Werner demonstrates how institutional practices and feminist approaches transform what audiences experience on stage, offering a fresh perspective on how Shakespeare's works are understood through performance rather than text alone.

Key Features

Focuses on The Royal Shakespeare Company to illustrate how gender politics and company management influence Shakespeare production and interpretation.

Examines the influential actor training methods developed by Cicely Berry and Patsy Rodenburg and their impact on performance.

Explores the history and significance of the RSC Women's Group in reshaping feminist approaches to Shakespeare.

Analyses how director Gale Edwards and other practitioners use performance to challenge traditional textual interpretations.

Argues that performance meaning extends far beyond the Shakespeare text, incorporating training, management, and ideology.
