"Acting Companies and their Plays in Shakespeare's London explores the intimate and dynamic relationship between acting companies and playwrights in this seminal era in English theatre history. Siobhan Keenan's analysis includes chapters on the traditions and workings of contemporary acting companies, playwriting practices, stages and staging, audiences and patrons, each illustrated with detailed case studies of individual acting companies and their plays, including troupes such as Lady Elizabeth's players, 'Beeston's Boys' and the King's Men and works by Shakespeare, Jonson, Middleton, Brome and Heywood. We are accustomed to focusing on individual playwrights: Acting Companies and their Plays in Shakespeare's London makes the case that we also need to think about the companies for which dramatists wrote and with whose members they collaborated, if we wish to better understand the dramas of the English Renaissance stage."--Bloomsbury Publishing.

Met de cabaret-musical Land te koop nemen Thea Doelwijt en Henk Tjon het Surinaamse en Nederlandse publiek in 1973 mee op ontdekkingsreis door Suriname. Na het succes van deze voorstellingenreeks richt het duo een vast gezelschap op: het Doe-theater. In de tien jaar die volgen groeit dit theatergezelschap uit tot een begrip in Suriname. Het Doe-theater streeft een professionele en eigen theatervorm na waarin alle Surinaamse culturen zichzelf kunnen herkennen en waarmee de bevolking bewust wordt gemaakt van misstanden in de samenleving. Door deze combinatie van professioneel, multicultureel en maatschappijkritisch theater heeft het Doe-theater een unieke plek in de culturele geschiedenis van Suriname. Lachen, huilen, bevrijden beschrijft het reilen en zeilen van het Doe-theater tegen de achtergrond van een veelbewogen Surinaamse geschiedenis. Het portret dat zo ontstaat, is gebaseerd op het privéarchief van Thea Doelwijt, interviews met voormalige Doe-theaterleden en andere betrokkenen en Surinaamse en Nederlandse krantenartikelen. Foto’s, liederen, theaterteksten en de bijgevoegde documentaire Libi Span van Jan Venema geven een levendig beeld van het Suriname van toen.

"Drawing on underexplored and only recently available archives, author Chrystyna Dail examines the influence of Stage for Action--a significant yet previously unstudied agitprop theatre group founded in 1943--on social activist theatre in the 1940s, early 1950s, and beyond"--

Eva Griffith's book fills a major gap concerning the world of Shakespearean drama. It tells the previously untold story of the Servants of Queen Anna of Denmark, a group of players parallel to Shakespeare's King's Men, and their London playhouse, The Red Bull. Built in vibrant Clerkenwell, The Red Bull lay within the northern suburbs of Jacobean London, with prostitution to the west and the Revels Office to the east. Griffith sets the playhouse in the historical context of the Seckford and Bedingfeld families and their connections to the site. Utilising a wealth of primary evidence including maps, plans and archival texts, she analyses the court patronage of figures such as Sir Robert Sidney, Queen Anna's chamberlain, alongside the company's members, function and repertoire. Plays performed included those by Webster, Dekker and Heywood - entertainments characterised by spectacle, battle sequence and courtroom drama, alongside London humour and song.

Rien n’est plus difficile que d’appréhender ou de présenter des cultures aussi singulières, multiformes et instables que celles qui forment le Brésil. À cela s’ajoute la difficulté de retenir, ne serait-ce que pour un seul instant, le caractère insaisissable du phénomène théâtral. Parler de théâtre brésilien n’eût été rien moins qu’une manière arbitraire de prétendre à une unité qui ne tient pas au regard de l’histoire théâtrale et politique du Brésil. Recourir au pluriel dans le titre de cet ouvrage scientifique Les théâtres brésiliens correspond donc à une façon de nommer une hétérogénéité historique, anthropologique, esthétique, scénique et poétique, à l’intérieur même de São Paulo. Revenant sur l’hétérogénéité des influences esthétiques et idéologiques qui ont marqué la pratique théâtrale, du théâtre de Brecht à l’influence de la performance, cet ouvrage collectif revient sur une histoire du théâtre qui commence dans les années 1960 jusqu’à nos jours. En sollicitant les universitaires de l’USP, ainsi que les figures centrales de la mise en scène et de la pratique théâtrale, Les théâtres brésiliens fait le point sur une activité théâtrale qui concerne aussi bien la théorisation des formes scéniques, que l’activité créatrice d’acteurs et de metteurs en scène contmeporains. Les analyses et les entretiens se lisent alors comme une contribution majeure, faite de témoignages de praticiens et de contributions universitaires, à même de permettre une compréhension de l’histoire politique et scénographique du théâtre du XXIe siècle.

Playing Companies and Commerce in Shakespeare's Time, first published in 2011, examines the nature of commercial relations among the theatre companies in London during the time of Shakespeare. Roslyn Knutson argues that the playing companies cooperated in the adoption of business practices that would enable the theatrical enterprise to flourish. Suggesting the guild as a model of economic cooperation, Knutson considers the networks of fellowship among players, the marketing strategies of the repertory, and company relationships with playwrights and members of the book trade. The book challenges two entrenched views about theatrical commerce: that companies engaged in cut-throat rivalry to drive one another out of business and that companies based business decisions on the personal and professional quarrels of the players and dramatists with whom they worked. This important contribution to theatre history will be of interest to scholars as well as historians.
