High-quality Shakespeare productions are always in demand. Recordings are accompanied by production images, teacher packs, and study notes to enhance student understanding of these important plays. Includes performance and supplemental material for the following plays: Richard II, Henry IV Part 1, Henry IV Part 2, The Two Gentlemen of Verona, Love's Labour's Lost, Love's Labour's Won ("Much Ado About Nothing"), Henry V, The Merchant of Venice, Othello, Hamlet, King Lear, Cymbeline, and The Tempest
While the texts of plays can serve as lasting documents, the productions are ephemeral; a live performance is gone when the curtain falls. And yet the collaborative elements of theatre in performance—the work of the actors, directors, and designers—have tremendous scholarly and educational value long after a production closes. Now, faculty, scholars, and patrons of the performing arts will be able to revisit great performances again and again, and these landmark events can become a permanent part of the curriculum.
Women’s Magazine Archive 2 features several of the most prominent, high-circulating, and long-running publications in this area, such as Woman’s Day and Town & Country. Collection 2 also, however, complements the first collection by including some titles focusing on more specific audiences and themes. Cosmopolitan and Seventeen, for example, are oriented towards a younger readership, while black women’s interests are represented by Essence. Women’s International Network News differs in being a more political, activist title, with an international dimension.
