Performing in Shakespeare's Time

We have several books in the library that discuss what it was like to perform in Shakespeare's time, including An Introduction to Shakespeare, by Marchette Chute, (call number 822.3 CHU), How Shakespeare Spent the Day, by Ivor Brown, (call number 822.3 BRO), and Shakespeare's England, (call number 822.3 SHA).  Please stop by the library to view these and other useful books for this topic.
