In the final two articles of this issue, Perry Mills and Janice Valls-Russell reflect on the ensemble-building experience of Edward's Boys and Nora Williams interviews the cast and creative team of A Two Woman Hamlet.
The issue continues with twelve performance reviews, including two Romeo and Juliets, both alike in their incorporation of dance. The other reviews range from Stratford Shakespeare Festival’s Macbeth to Edward’s Boys’ The Enterlude of the Godly Queen Hester.
In the first two articles of this issue, Alice Dailey and Chelsea Phillips draw back the curtain on the process of putting together a production of The Spanish Tragedy and Kevin Ewert speaks to the experience of playing Iago in the Untitled Othello Project.
Take a look at the dramaturg’s website: thespanishtragedy.my.canva.site/home, which explores the play’s production history, a biography of Thomas Kyd, and the legacy of revenge. You can also explore the dramaturgical resources created, such as the glossary and education guide!
