Recenzje

'This highly intelligent collection of essays, written by practitioners and eyewitnesses as well as by some of the most important theatre scholars writing today, at last puts student Shakespeare onto our intellectual map. As impressive in its geographical and historical scope as it is in its depth, Shakespeare on the University Stage reveals campus production as a rich, diverse and scandalously under-studied field of Shakespearean performance, now at last ripe for analysis and appreciation.' Michael Dobson, University of Birmingham
