"I celebrate all things that demystify Shakespeare so that artists and audiences alike can breathe and live inside his wonderous words. Speak the Speech! does just that. It is a great resource not just for actors but for anyone who loves the Bard." --George C. Wolfe, Producer, the Joseph Papp Public Theater/New York Shakespeare Festival, I celebrate all things that demystify Shakespeare so that artists and audiences alike can breathe and live inside his wonderous words. Speak the Speech! does just that. It is a great resource not just for actors but for anyone who loves the Bard., "I celebrate all things that demystify Shakespeare so that artists and audiences alike can breathe and live inside his wonderous words. Speak the Speech! does just that. It is a great resource not just for actors but for anyone who loves the Bard." --George C. Wolfe, Producer, the Joseph Papp Public Theater/New York Shakespeare Festival Show Business Weekly Trippingly on the Tongue I'm very excited about a new book that has landed on my desk, and I'm heartily recommending it to all actors out there who frequently find themselves in the position of having to come up with a polished classical monologue for auditions or for class. Speak the Speech! Shakespeare's Monologues Illuminated by Rhona Silverbush and Sami Plotkin has just been published by FSG/Faber and Faber, and this big, exhaustive work (over a thousand pages) examines 150 of the Bard's monologues for both men and women, annotating the language and providing insightful commentary to spark the performer's imagination. I don't know of another book quite like it for classical actors, and for all students and lovers of Shakespeare, it strikes me as a must-have. Speak the Speech! is available in bookstores now. CHOICE, Current Reviews for Academic Libraries, March 2003, Vol 40, No. 07 Silverbush and Plotkin have assembled a mighty resource for actors preparing Shakespeare monologues for classes or auditions. The authors deliver cohesively organized entries that help users select monologues and cogently written commentaries that aid comprehension and profile variant interpretive treatments of the speeches. The volume includes 148 prose and blank verse speeches -- at least one example from each of Shakespeare's 37 plays appears and almost half are monologue options for women. Each monologue is accompanied by expansive apparatus providing tips ranging from how frequently the monologue turns up in auditions, to annotation clarifying meaning of obscure words and strange syntax, to pointers on interpretive tactics actors can employ, to guidance on "significant scans." The book's content also embraces techniques for analyzing Shakespeare's text, a capsule discussion of Shakespeare's world, and plot synopses for all plays. Although the authors omit some monologues that students may wish to study, and although some commentaries may not explore interpretive perspectives exhaustively, this remarkable volume will indeed serve as an informative and user-friendly "tool kit" for actors. Teachers will wish to consider it for course adoption. Summing Up: Highly recommended. Lower-division undergraduates through graduate students; professionals. -- P. D. Nelsen, Marlboro College
