Shakespeare in Performance I
Reconstructing
Shakespeare's Globe Theatre
with Frank Hildy
Basing
his work on lessons learned from the reconstruction of the
London Globe Theatre,
Professor Frank Hildy will consider
the impact on the relationship between actors and audience
of an open interactive stage which allows for multiple simultaneous
playing locations. He will also examine the ways Shakespeare's
scene structure follows the possibilities inherent in such
an architectural model. Dr. Hildy will also discuss recent
construction in Staunton, Virginia, of a theater for the Shenandoah
Shakespeare Company modeled on Shakespeare's "other" playhouse,
the Blackfriars.
