Much Ado About Nothing: Arden Performance Editions

For the first time, the world-renowned Arden Shakespeare is producing Performance Editions, aimed specifically for use in the rehearsal room. Published in association with the Shakespeare Institute, the text features easily accessible facing page notes - including short definitions of words, key textual variants, and guidance on metre and pronunciation; a larger font size for easier reading; space for writing notes and reduced punctuation aimed at the actor rather than the reader. With editorial expertise from the worlds of theatre and academia, the series has been developed in association with actors and drama students. The Series Editors are distinguished scholars Professor Michael Dobson and Dr Abigail Rokison and leading Shakespearean actor, Simon Russell Beale.

Pentru prima data, Arden Shakespeare, de renume mondial, produce editii de performanta, destinate special pentru a fi utilizate in sala de repetitii. Publicat in asociere cu Institutul Shakespeare, textul prezinta note usor accesibile ale paginii - inclusiv definitii scurte ale cuvintelor, variante textuale cheie si indrumari privind contorul si pronuntia; o dimensiune mai mare a fontului pentru o citire mai usoara; spatiu pentru scrierea notelor si punctuatie redusa indreptata mai degraba catre actor decat catre cititor.
