Secrets of Acting Shakespeare is a passionate and witty guide that proves anybody can act Shakespeare. Patrick Tucker shows how these plays work by ear and encourages actors to perform like the Elizabethan actors who had only their own lines and not entire play scripts. Beyond that, he argues for care and attention to the First Folio text of Shakespeare's plays, where actors may find important verbal clues to better understand what lines mean and how to say them. This is an indispensable book for actors trained and amateur, as well as for anyone curious about how the Elizabethan theater worked.
