How Did Actors Learn Their Lines?

For the fourth episode of Let’s Talk Shakespeare, I asked “How did actors learn their lines?”. If you were an actor in the Kings Men, your rehearsal process would have been very different from todays! In this episode I talk to my guests about cure scripts, rehearsal time, where acting companies got their costumes and sets, and who exactly would have done to the theatre. This weeks guests include: Professor Stanley Wells, Honorary President of the SBT Professor Michael Dobson, Director of the Shakespeare Institute Dr Elizabeth Dollimore, Outreach and Primary Learning Manager a the SBT Dr Anjna Chouhan, Lecturer in Shakespeare Studies at the SBT Ben Crystal, Actor Director and producer You can find show notes for today's episode over on our blog:
