Research output: Contribution to conference › Paper › peer-review

Abstract

Most great stagings and film versions of Shakespeare plays feature an innovative and thought-provoking twist: a Stalinist Macbeth, a winking Kate, a female “Prospera.” This paper outlines one strategy to allow students not only to have such ideas about the plays they read in an undergraduate introduction to Shakespeare course, but also to perform such interpretations themselves.
