Review articles: Apartheid Shakespeare On Trial: Rohan Quince. Shakespeare in South Africa: Stage Productions during the Apartheid Era

Abstract

This is an important book for a number of reasons. First, it delineates a period of Shakespearean production in South Africa scarcely investigated. Secondly, the study takes trouble relating the productions under scrutiny to their socio-political milieu (not always successfully). And thirdly, it is written by someone who actively enjoys Shakespeare and the theatre.
