Twelve leading actors take us behind the scenes, each recreating in detail a memorable performance in one of Shakespeare's major roles. Roger Allam on Falstaff Eileen Atkins on Viola Chiwetel Ejoifor on Othello Sara Kestleman on Titania Ian McKellen on Lear Michael Pennington on Timon Alan Rickman on Jaques Simon Russell Beale on Cassius Fiona Shaw on Katherine Patrick Stewart on Shylock Harriet Walter on Imogen Zo Wanamaker on Beatrice Praise for Shakespeare on Stage: 'Absorbing and original... Curry's actors are often thinking and talking as that other professional performer, Shakespeare himself, might have done' Times Literary Supplement

#Juliet for #RomeoandJuliet #seductiveshakespeare. Strangely, there's no essay on #Romeo in this collection, so I'll have to find something else for him! 😂
