Shakespeare'S Advice To The Players Av Sir Peter (Celebrity) Hall

<p>The best-selling guide to acting Shakespeare in a new smaller and lighter handbook size.<br><br>Shakespeare tells the actor when to go fast and when to go slow; when to pause, when to come in on cue and when to accent a word. His text is full of such clues. He tells the actor when but never tells him why or how. That is up to the actor. Much like bringing a musical score to life, Peter Hall guides us to ‘speak the speech’. <br><br>An essential text for classical training at drama school and an invaluable reference book for actors and directors working on Shakespeare productions. Peter Hall makes watching or reading Shakespeare a richer experience, for audiences as well as actors.</p>
