What have we learned from the first experiments at the reconstructed Globe on Bankside? Written by the Shakespearean appointed to study the actor's use of the space, the book is the first analytical account of the discoveries that have been made about its important first years of use. Pauline Kiernan relates her findings to what we know of original staging practices in Shakespeare's time to show how actors, directors, and playgoers have responded to the demands of "historical" constraints--and unexpected freedoms--to offer valuable insights into the dynamics of Elizabethan theatre.
