Description

Explore the history of the Royal Shakespeare Company's studio theatre with Studio Shakespeare: The Royal Shakespeare Company at The Other Place. This book provides an extensive look at the development of this unique space and its impact on classical theatre. Written by Alycia Smith-Howard, the text features a biography of Mary Ann 'Buzz' Goodbody (1947-75), the founder and first artistic director. Readers will learn how Goodbody, acting as a socialist and feminist, worked to change how Shakespeare's plays were produced. As the first female director for the RSC, her vision helped invigorate the approach to classical works. The book details the opening of The Other Place in 1973, which stands as Goodbody's greatest achievement. This work is an essential resource for those studying theatre history, feminist contributions to the arts, and the evolution of the Royal Shakespeare Company.
