Peter Hall (1930–2017) is one of the most influential directors of Shakespeare”s plays in the modern age. Under his direction, the Royal Shakespeare Company and the National Theatre rediscovered Shakespeare as a writer who could comment incisively on the modern world. Productions such as
Coriolanus,
The Wars of the Roses and
Hamlet established his reputation as a director able to bring Shakespeare to the heart of contemporary politics. He later cemented his reputation with epic productions of
Coriolanus and
Antony and Cleopatra at the National. With the Peter Hall Company, Hall continued to work intensively on Shakespeare, directing plays in the UK and America.
Reviewing Hall”s work in its cultural and creative context, this study explores his approach to directing and rehearsal. This is the first book to analyse all of Hall”s professional Shakespeare productions in a historical context, from the Suez crisis to the 9/11 attacks and beyond.
