Reviews
Advance praise: 'With its entirely new sense of Shakespeare's combined poetic and practical craft, this bold and elegant book has far-reaching consequences for the worlds of performance, editing and interpretation.' Tiffany Stern, Shakespeare Institute, University of Birmingham Advance praise: 'Brett Gamboa's book represents a highly original contribution to the study of Shakespeare's working practices which challenges orthodox views on the casting of his plays in early performance. The work of a scholar who is also a practitioner, it demands to be considered by anyone with an interest in Shakespeare's dramatic craftsmanship.' Sir Stanley Wells, CBE, FRSL, Honorary President, The Shakespeare Birthplace Trust

Author Information
Brett Gamboa is Assistant Professor of English at Dartmouth College, New Hampshire. He received his M.A. and Ph.D. from Harvard University, Massachusetts. His teaching and research focus on Shakespeare's plays in performance, although he teaches courses that explore a range of artistic media, from lyric poetry to contemporary television. His essays and reviews on Shakespeare and other dramatists appear in several journals and books, and he has published performance-oriented introductions and commentaries for the forty plays collected in The Norton Shakespeare. Gamboa's scholarship is informed by his work as a theatre director, having mounted productions for professional companies and on campuses, including ten plays by Shakespeare.
