Instant Shakespeare by Louis Fantasia
Instant Shakespeare offers a straightforward, accessible and practical set of ground rules for performing Shakespeare, expanded and refined in performances and workshops throughout the world. These enable performers, directors and teachers of all backgrounds and levels of experience to demystify Shakespeare's complex language and perform his plays in a clear, fresh and unpretentious manner. Writing in a direct and humorous style, Louis Fantasia shows how to understand both the vocabulary and the structure and essential dramatic event of each play. He provides exercise monologues, exercise scenes and tools for textual analysis; explains correct breathing; and lays out his philosophies of training and performance.
Louis Fantasia is director of the American Shakespeare Globe Centre's Teaching Shakespeare Through Performance Institute. For ten years he directed the Globe's acting and directing workshop in London, and he has mounted productions at a variety of festivals and theatres worldwide.
