- W2320110547 abstract "S ITUATED, OR RATHER STRANDED, as I am for purposes of this lecture between study and stage, I find it difficult to look at either without a squint. Having been for many years a performer myself, and yet of late not above assuming professor's toga-though not, I hasten to add, his titleI have a good deal of sympathy with attitudes which ought to be complementary, but which too often conflict. The academic, poring over a text with Variorum at his elbow, is bent on deciding what play says and what it means. The stage director must at all cost please, if possible surprise, and perhaps shock his audience. The academic presumably knows play already, and with him familiarity is unlikely to have bred contempt; audience may know it too, but may also have seen it more than once too often. The theatre thrives on novelty; and great acting is, at least partly, art of unexpected. Yet some expectations are legitimate, and you disappoint them at your peril. Gertrude says of Hamlet that he is fat and scant of breath. Read faint for fat, and line does no outrage to the glass of fashion and mold of form. Take it au pied de la lettre, and shades of every Hamlet from Burbage to Booth will rise in protest. Hamlet refers, unambiguously, to his beard-but this need not frighten us. I was once a bearded Hamlet myself, and spent weekend at Boulogne to conceal more unsightly stages of its growth." @default.
