This serious yet lively book offers an intensely practical account of the way
Twelfth Night actually works on stage.
Drawing both on his inside knowledge as a director of the play and on his lifelong experience as a Shakespearian actor, Pennington takes the reader through
Twelfth Night scene by detailed scene.
'He is sharply intelligent, scrupulously careful, hugely knowledgeable and above all, wonderfully readable'
