Shakespeare s awareness of Italian comedia is well known, but the influence of Greek theatre was also significant. Jack Shepherd, assisted by Marcello Magni, will lead this exploration of the full mask, the comic half mask and the three-quarter mask employed in classical Greek and Roman theatre. A wide selection of texts and stories will influence the project, including St. John, Milton, Dante, Orpheus, Comedia and The York Mystery Cycle.| 15 Aug 05 to 19 Sep 05 | Shakespeare's Globe Theatre West End, Greater London Performance Details => Venue archive |
