This sixth volume of essays by members of the Royal Shakespeare
Company and the National Theatre is the first to focus on a single
group of Shakespeare’s plays. To celebrate the arrival of the new
millennium the RSC presented productions of all eight of the
history plays of the first and second Lancastrian tetralogies. Half
of the twelve essays in this volume accordingly come from this
important and historic cycle. Of the other six essays, from later
productions, three are from the rarely performed King John, one
from the even more rarely performed Edward III and the remaining
two deal with the best-known title roles among the history plays,
in two major recent independent productions of Henry V and Richard
III. The contributors are Guy Henry, Kelly Hunter, Jo
Stone-Fewings, David Rintoul, Samuel West, David Troughton, Nancy
Carroll, Desmond Barrit, Adrian Lester, Fiona Bell, Richard
Cordery, and Henry Goodman.
