Abstract:
In this illustrated talk, Professor Michael Dobson considers the nature of the playhouses for which Shakespeare first wrote his scripts, and looks at some of the theatres which have been purpose-built for the performance of his plays around the world over the last four centuries.What sorts of investment in Shakespeare do these buildings make visible, and which have best substituted for the lost popular playhouses of Elizabethan London?
