Pascale Aebischer is Professor of Shakespeare and Early Modern Performance Studies at the University of Exeter. She is the author of Shakespeare's Violated Bodies (2004), Jacobean Drama (2010), and Screening Early Modern Drama (2013). Formerly the editor of Shakespeare Bulletin, she has also co-edited several collections of essays, including Performing Early Modern Drama Today (with Kathryn Prince, 2012; Choice Outstanding Academic Title winner 2013), and Shakespeare and the 'Live' Theatre Broadcast Experience (with Susanne Greenhalgh and Laurie Osborne, 2018).

'This is a brilliant, timely and provocative work of criticism, and a delight to read. Pascale Aebischer is leading the conversation in this field, and she continues to blaze a trail for the rest of us. This book is exemplary performance scholarship: rigorously argued and theoretically-informed, yet written with such a readable style and attention to detail that the performances described really come alive in the mind of the reader.' Stephen Purcell, University of Warwick
