A Lifetime with Shakespeare: Notes from an American Director of All 38 Plays - Paperback
by Paul Barry (Author)
Written by the only American to direct and fight-choreograph all of Shakespeare's plays, this text represents an expert and practical guide to the Bard's oeuvre. From the Henry VI plays through The Tempest, each play is explored in its full theatrical complexity, with particular attention paid to directorial and acting challenges, character quirks and development, and the particularities of Shakespearean language. Directing successes are recounted, but the failures are not shied away from, making this work indispensable for anyone interested in producing plays by Shakespeare.
The late Paul Barry spent 60 years as a professional actor and musician on stage and in films, and directed more than 300 plays and musicals. He lived in Morristown, New Jersey.
