Description

In Speaking Shakespeare, Patsy Rodenburg tackles probably the most difficult acting jobs: speaking Shakespeare’s words both as they were meant to be spoken and in an understandable and dramatic way. Rodenburg calls this “a simple manual to begin the adventure into the guts of Shakespeare,” and that’s what she gives us. With the similar insight she displayed in The Actor Speaks, Rodenburg tackles the playing of all Shakespeare’s characters. She uses dramatic resonance, breathing, and placement to turn how an actor can bring Hamlet, Rosalind, Puck and other characters to life. That is one book each and every working actor should have.
