The Spanish Golden Age in English: Perspectives on Performance

In 2004 the Royal Shakespeare Company produced a ground-breaking season of Spanish Golden Age plays in English which pioneered a new approach to translating these works for the modern stage. As well as a director and translator, each play was assigned an academic advisor in the belief that the quality and success of the productions would rely in part on balancing the vitality of contemporary theatre practice with a respect for the original plays.Boyle, Joan is the author of 'The Spanish Golden Age in English: Perspectives on Performance', published 2008 under ISBN 9781840028157 and ISBN 1840028157.
