Based on extensive research in previously unexplored archives, this generously illustrated and lively work of theatre history enriches our understanding of how and why Shakespeare's plays have mattered to generations of rude mechanicals and aristocratic dilettantes alike: from the days of the Theatres Royal to those of the Little Theatre Movement, from the pioneering Winter's Tale performed in eighteenth-century Salisbury to the Merchant of Venice performed by Allied prisoners for their Nazi captors, and from the how-to book which transforms Mercutio into Yankee Doodle to the Napoleonic counterspy who used Richard III as a tool of surveillance"--$$cProvided by publisher. 000437419 588__ $$aDescription based on print version record. 000437419 60010 $$aShakespeare, William,$$d1564-1616$$xDramatic production. 000437419 60010 $$aShakespeare, William,$$d1564-1616$$xStage history. 000437419 650_0 $$aEnglish drama. 000437419 655_7 $$aElectronic books.$$2lcsh 000437419 77608 $$iPrint version:$$aDobson, Michael, 1960-$$tShakespeare and amateur performance.$$dCambridge ; New York : Cambridge University Press, 2011$$z9780521862349$$w(DLC) 2010050042$$w(OCoLC)690904664 000437419 8520_ $$bacq 000437419 85280 $$bebk$$hProquest Ebook Central 000437419 85640 $$3ProQuest Ebook Central$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://ebookcentral.proquest.com/lib/usiricelib-ebooks/detail.action?docID=824442$$zOnline Access 000437419 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:437419$$pGLOBAL_SET 000437419 980__ $$aEBOOK 000437419 980__ $$aBIB 000437419 982__ $$aEbook 000437419 983__ $$aOnline
