This volume offers an accessible and thought-provoking guide to this major renaissance tragedy, surveying its key themes and evolving critical preoccupations. Providing a uniquely detailed and up-to-date history of the play’s rich stage performance, it looks closely at major contemporary performances on both sides of the Atlantic, including Declan Donnellan’s 2006 production for Cheek by Jowl starring Tom Hiddleston, Dominic Dromgoole’s production at the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse in 2014 and Jesse Berger’s 2016 production at The Red Bull Theater. In a series of critical essays, the guide offers fresh perspectives on the characters’ mechanical psychology, the influence of Spanish literature and contemporary theatre-makers’ handling of the play’s dramaturgy. Featuring a selection of digital resources and an annotated bibliography, this collection is a definitive guide to the Changeling.
