About the book
This is a detailed account of the theatrical fortunes of A Midsummer Night's Dream on the British stage, from the 1590s to the 1990s. The substantial, illustrated introduction traces the rise of the play from theatrical neglect in the eighteenth century through the spectacular productions of the nineteenth century to its current high status. The authoritative New Cambridge Shakespeare text of the play is accompanied by notes on actors' interpretations, settings and textual alterations. The author considers the cultural changes which have affected the play's popularity as well as the conceptions of individual directors from David Garrick and George Colman, via Madame Vestris and Beerbohm Tree, Granville Barker and W. Bridges Adams to Peter Brook, Robert Lepage and Adrian Noble. The book shows theatre history as cultural history. It will be invaluable to students of Shakespeare in performance at graduate level, working in departments of English or drama/theatre and to those intrigued by the changing reputation of Shakespeare.

4.0Sehr gutes Buxh
Mir hat das Buch tatsãchlich sehr gut gefallen, obwohl der Teil mit den Handwerkern zwischendrin nicht so gut gefallen hat. Da ich das Buch eh mal lesen wollte, hatte es dann auch gepasst. Und ausnahmsweise stirbt in den Buch mal niemand. Also bin ich jetzt Shakespeares. Dementsprechend werde ich auch noch weitere Bücher von ihm lesen. Ich kann das Buch also empfehlen.
