This title is no longer available.

Does the thought of sitting through A Midsummer Night’s Dream give you nightmares?  Did Romeo and Juliet seem like a foreign film-without the subtitles?  Relax.  As John Doyle and Ray Lischner prove in this uniquely accessible guide, Shakespeare is not only the greatest writer who ever lived, but he’s also a great entertainer — once you get a handle on his wild plots and witty wordplay.  With Shakespeare For Dummies, you get snappy summaries and scorecards for every play to help you keep track of who’s who, who’s in love with whom, and who’s killed whom, plus fun tips on understanding Elizabethan English, including all those racy puns and jokes.  Shakespeare difficult?  Zounds!  ’Tis all much ado about nothing!

(364 pages, 7½ x 9½, paperback)

John Doyle asks actors to never hide in fear from Shakespeare’s words, but to use them to bring the story to life. Natascha McElhone, costar of the films The Truman Show and Mrs. Dalloway


What great fun!  What the film ‘Shakespeare in Love’ has done to make Shakespeare the man accessible to a general audience, this book will do to make Shakespeare the writer enjoyable. Charlotte J Headrick, Ph.D., professor and director, Theatre Arts, Oregon State University
