  • Gender and Sexuality in Adaptations of Shakespeare Organizer: Deanne Williams, York University
    SAA Seminar: Gender and Sexuality in Adaptations of Shakespeare Organizer: Deanne Williams, York University. 1. The Fiendlike Queen: Recuperating the Feminine in Modern Adaptations of Macbeth William C. Carroll Boston University Terry Eagleton’s notorious comment – “To any unprejudiced reader – which would seem to exclude Shakespeare himself, his contemporary audiences and almost all literary critics – it is surely clear that positive value in Macbeth lies with the three witches. The witches are the heroines of the piece, however little the play itself recognizes the fact” (William Shakespeare, p. 2) – is just one of many attempts in recent decades to recast the witches in a more positive light, an effort that has had considerable success. Lady Macbeth has proven to be a harder case to rehabilitate, at least on the stage (as seen recently in Kate Fleetwood’s harrowing depiction with Patrick Stewart in Rupert Goold’s version). In adaptations of the past century, however, especially those written by women and those for younger readers, a very different picture of the “fiend-like queen” has emerged. These representations move far away from earlier texts in which “Lady Macbeth” is little more than a synonym for a murderous woman. Several recent works instead seek explanation or rationale for her participation in Duncan’s murder through reference to her earlier marriage and son by that marriage (both suppressed in Shakespeare’s play), to her situation as a woman in a culture of Celtic masculinity, and even to a supposed daughter (Klein) with whom Lady Macbeth (not dead in this version!) is ultimately reunited.

    RESNICOW SCHROEDER March 18, 2011 RSC: How Stratford got its bite back Vibrant, sexy and ensconced in a swish new home, as it reaches its 50th year the Royal Shakespeare Company is buzzing. But just a while ago, it looked doomed. Charles Spencer meets Michael Boyd, the man who pulled an institution back from the brink Michael Boyd strikes me as one of the great unsung heroes of our cultural life. With dogged determination, the artistic director has pulled the Royal Shakespeare Company back to the commanding heights of British theatre. As the company prepares to celebrate its 50th anniversary season in Stratford, in a building that has been spectacularly transformed, I can’t remember a time when it seemed in more exuberant form, or more sharply focused. The rise in its fortunes seems to be encapsulated by its joyous smash hit Matilda, based on the Roald Dahl story, which opened last December. It’s the best new musical since Billy Elliot and will transfer to the West End this autumn, with Broadway almost certain to follow. Suddenly the RSC seems vibrant and sexy again. Last week the critics were invited to see productions of King Lear and Romeo and Juliet in the newly remodelled Royal Shakespeare Theatre. Very wisely, Boyd is opening the new building with shows that were already in the rep of the temporary Courtyard Theatre, a massive metal box that provided both a home, and the prototype for the new RST, during the three and a half years of the building project – which finished on time and on budget.

ABSTRACT Drawing on archive material, reviews and personal observation, this thesis examines the use of visual media in stage productions of Shakespeare’s plays. Utilizing examples from the period between 1905 and 2007, the thesis focuses on intermedial productions, explores the media use in Shakespeare productions, and asks why certain Shakespeare plays seem to be more adaptable to the inclusion of visual media. Chapter one considers the technology and societal shifts affecting the theatre art and the audience and Klaus Bruhn Jensen’s three level definition of intermediality which provides a framework for the categorizing the media usage within Shakespeare productions.
