From the Royal Shakespeare Company – a modern, definitive edition of
Shakespeare's controversial comedy of the war between the sexes. With
an expert introduction by Sir Jonathan Bate, this unique edition
presents a historical overview of The Taming of the Shrew in
performance, takes a detailed look at specific productions, and
recommends film versions. Included in this edition are interviews
with two leading directors and an actress - Gregory Doran, Phyllida
Lloyd and Michelle Gomez – providing an illuminating insight into
the extraordinary variety of interpretations that are possible. This
edition also includes an essay on Shakespeare's career and Elizabethan
theatre, and enables the reader to understand the play as it was
originally intended – as living theatre to be enjoyed and performed.
Ideal for students, theatre-goers, actors and general readers, the RSC
Shakespeare editions offer a fresh, accessible and contemporary
approach to reading and rediscovering Shakespeare's works for the
twenty-first century.
