- W2760127968 abstract "This thesis uses the approach of performance criticism to study the place ofShakespeare’s history plays on the English stage during the first ten years of the twentyfirstcentury. Although there have been numerous productions of Shakespeare’stragedies and comedies during this period also, the history plays opened the decade inStratford as the Royal Shakespeare Company’s millennium project and concluded thedecade at Shakespeare’s Globe. The history plays were to some extent based onEnglish chronicles, and this thesis acts as chronicle, setting out to address theinterpretations and meanings of the productions in a decade which has seen in Britainsocial, economic, and political upheaval. The thesis looks at different aspects of thehistory plays in production: the idea of the plays as a cycle; productions that engagewith the present moment; adaptation; Shakespeare’s histories on film. In so doing thethesis considers how far the productions engage with and comment on the conditions inwhich they have been produced and in which they were written; and whether it isnecessary for them to do either in order to be successful. The introduction offers areview of existing performance criticism. Thereafter the first chapter addressesinfluential film adaptations of Richard III; productions of Henry V at Manchester andthe National Theatre, Richard II at the Old Vic, and Richard III: An Arab Tragedy arediscussed as twenty-first century history plays; Northern Broadside’s Wars o f the Rosesis looked at in relation to other productions of cycle adaptations; and the RSC’s TheHistories is discussed in depth as a modem cycle production before the final chapteraddresses the history plays on the stage of the new Globe theatre. In an areadominated by theatre history and analyses of production techniques, this thesis offers anoriginal contribution to knowledge in its application of these approaches to recentproductions of history plays, creating a chronicle survey of the history plays in these tenyears on the English stage." @default.
