P.B
The two traditions: Elizabethan and modern acting -- Using the verse: heightened and naturalistic verse -- Language and character: making the words one's own -- Using the prose: why does Shakespeare use prose? -- Set speeches and soliloquies: taking the audience with you -- Using the sonnets: going over some old ground -- Irony and ambiguity: text that isn't what it seems -- Passion and coolness: a question of balance -- Rehearsing the text: Orsino and Viola -- Exploring a character: playing Shylock -- Contemporary Shakespeare: a discussion -- Poetry and hidden poetry: three kinds of failure.
