Read Orson Welles on Shakespeare Richard France Books


"For a fan of theatre interested in the W.P.A. years, Orson Welles and Shakespeare, this book is invaluable. Since we can't go back in time to see the Orson Welles theatre productions of note, we can at least read the scripts to see how he cut them and read the insightful notes by Richard France about the productions. There could have been more pictures, but oh well, the thrust is the text of the scripts, VOODO MACBETH, CAESAR and FIVE KINGS."
