Secrets of Acting Shakespeare isn't a book which gently instructs. It is a passionate, yes-you-can guide designed to prove that anybody can act Shakespeare. Patrick Tucker discusses the ¿cue scripts' used by Elizabethan actors, who knew only their own lines, to demonstrate the extraordinary way these plays work by ear. This second edition encourages trained and amateur actors alike to look to the original practices of the Elizabethan theatre for inspiration.
