Presented by Fiona Shaw, this is an invaluable resource, examining various issues, including how interpretations of Shakespeare can be explored through performance and the difference between film and theatre.
The video includes workshops by Fiona Shaw with student actors; extracts from the all-male Cheek by Jowl production of the play; and interviews with Cheek by Jowl’s Declan Donnellan and Adrian Lester and with directors/actors Annie Castledine, Peter Sellars, Juliet Stevenson and Deborah Warner. It ends with a specially shot version of the banishment scene directed by Fiona Shaw, with Susan Lynch and Matilda Ziegler
