Klett, Elizabeth.

Cross-gender Shakespeare and English national identitywearing the codpiece /[electronic resource] :Elizabeth Klett. - 1st ed. - New York, NY :Palgrave Macmillan,2009. - x, 208 p. ;22 cm.

Includes bibliographical references and index.

Introduction : wearing the codpiece -- The king's many bodies : Fiona Shaw's Richard II (1995-96) -- Playing with contradictions : Kathryn Hunter's King Lear (1997) -- Gender in exile : VanessaRedgrave's Prospero in The tempest (2000) -- Staging and subverting nostalgia : Dawn French's Bottom in A midsummer night's dream (2001) -- Vice-versa : all-female Shakespeare at the Globe Theatre (2003-04).

This astute book examines the cultural implications of reactions to contemporary performancesin which Richard II, Lear, Prospero, Bottom, Richard III, Petruchio, and Benedick were played by women. Elizabeth Klett argues that the critical uproar in the British press provoked by these performances signals a deep-seated anxiety about the status of Shakespeare within British culture. By dismissing, mocking, or railing against these women, reviewers inadvertently demonstrate the power of theseproductions to disrupt a series of established forms: mimetic theater,normative gender identity, Shakespearean authority, and English national identity. This book discusses the ways these women's performances are changing the British theater, inviting their audiences to think differently about Shakespeare, their nation, and themselves.
