The third volume in the Stage by Stage series resumes the narrative after the disappearance of Greek and Roman drama in the turbulent first centuries of the Christian epoch. It traces the return of religious theatre and ritual, with Passion Plays, Mysteries and Moralities taking over from classical drama while folk farce flourishes throughout the Middle Ages. Starting in Italy with the revival of classical works, the Renaissance produces whimsical new dramatic forms including commedia dell'arte, as well as exalted musical innovations culminating in resplendent operas and opulent ballets. The author gives a detailed summary of Shakespeare's plays and how they have been interpreted through the centuries since their first performance.
