Film Description
In Playing Shakespeare, Trevor Nunn and John Barton, Associate Director and co-founder of the Royal Shakespeare Company, gathered many of the finest British actors of their generation in one rehearsal room with the aim of coming to grips with the work of Shakespeare, using members of the RSC doing scenes, sonnets, and commentary as prime examples. Featuring Judi Dench, Ben Kingsley, Ian McKellen, Patrick Stewart, David Suchet and many more famous names, the series looks at areas such as speaking Shakespearean verse, set speeches and soliloquy, rehearsing the text and exploring a character, and is essential to anyone interested in the performance of Shakespeare's plays.
