This Regional Tony Award-winning the Abbey Theatre) asked me to direct Roddy Doyle’s theater’s year-round season features as many as twenty new play Two Pints and tour it to pubs around productions and 650 performances—including plays, Ireland, I was thrilled. As someone who has made musicals, world premieres, family programming, and presentations from around the globe. theatre in an array of found and site-sympathetic The work is enjoyed by 225,000 audience members annually, with one in four under the age of spaces, including pubs, shops, piers, beneath eighteen. Chicago Shakespeare is the city’s leading producer of international work, and touring flyovers, and one time inside a de-sanctified church, its own productions across five continents has garnered multiple accolades, including the putting theatre on in pubs around Ireland felt like a prestigious Laurence Olivier Award. Emblematic of its role as a global theater, the company sort of homecoming. I suspect every theatre director spearheaded Shakespeare 400 Chicago, celebrating Shakespeare’s legacy in a citywide, based outside of Dublin has had a production of yearlong international arts and culture festival, which engaged 1.1 million people. The Theater’s some sort or another perform in a pub, so why did nationally acclaimed arts in literacy programs support the work of English and drama teachers, this feel different? and bring Shakespeare to life on stage for tens of thousands of their students each school year.

Acknowledgments It is odd to have a single name on a project that has benefited from so many people’s contributions. I have been writing these acknowledgments in my head since I began the project, but now that the time is here to set them down I am a bit at a loss as to how to convey how truly indebted I am. To start, I would like to thank Sabrina Barton, Mia Carter, Ann Cvetkovich, Neville Hoad, and Janet Staiger for their insights, for their encouragement, and for teaching me what it means to be an engaged scholar. Lisa Moore has been a teacher, a writing coach, a cheerleader, and a friend. She approached my work with a combination of rigor and compassion that made this dissertation far better than it would have been without her guidance. I could not have done this without her.
