The Routledge Companion to Actorsrsquo; Shakespeare is a window onto how todayrsquo;s actors contribute to the continuing life and relevance of Shakespearersquo;s plays. The process of acting is notoriously hard to document; but this volume reaches behind famous performances to examine the actorsrsquo; craft; their development and how they engage with playtexts. Each chapter relies upon privilieged access to its subject to offer an unparalleled insight into contemporary practice. This volume explores the techniques; interpretive approaches and performance styles of the following actors:Simon Russell Beale; Sinead Cusack; Judi Dench; Kate Duchene; Colm Feore; Mariah Gale; John Harrell; Greg Hicks; Rory Kinnear; Kevin Kline; Adrian Lester; Marcelo Magni; Ian McKellen; Patrice Naiambana; Vanessa Redgrave; Piotr Semak; Anthony Sher; Jonathan Slinger; Kate Valk; Harriet WalterThis twin volume to The Routledge Companion to Directorsrsquo; Shakespeare is an essential work for both actors and students of Shakespeare.

9 of 9 people found the following review helpful. Rich. but in the same kind of roomBy Lupo MontegrigioA wide range of (mostly) rather luxurious rooms filled with everything and anything Chinese. But you wont find much of authentic traditional chinese homes here (and indeed the dustjacket clearly announces this). Although the rooms are sometimes packed with Chinese things. they almost all still feel western/international/chinese. mixed in different proportions. That said. the photos are great and its a joy to visit all these apartements and houses and select your favourites. Since each place only gets two (or three) spreads generally. a string of different locations can be presented and youre invited to more rooms and settings than anyone can digest at one read-through. And thats great. you can return again and again to this very rich book.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Five StarsBy Gregory M.
