Look inside: Shakespearian Theatre by Peter Chrisp
Describes life in Shakespeare's time through the actors, audience and accessories found in a theatre. It raises the curtain on a stage full of peculiar props and performers. It expands from Shakespearean theatre to look at curriculum aspects of Tudor life: leisure and entertainment, religion, war and politics.
'The glory of this series is the way it plunges children into the thick of history and beguiles them with the strangeness of another time' -- Books for Keeps 'A lively source of information and plenty of talking points' -- Carousel, Spring 2001 'The idea of the 'Look Inside' series is elegant.. The format is generous with contemporary prints and photographs, and eyewitness quotations (many of them footnoted, something unique in a book for this age group)... And where there is rich evidence, the past emerges in all its complexity.' -- Books for Keeps 20030103
Peter Chrisp is a highly experienced and entertaining children's author, who wrote A Greek Theatre in the Look Inside series. Adam Hook is a children's illustrator with a growing reputation for his detailed, well-researched historical reconstructions.
