Book excerpt: "Martin Jago has written an attractive, informative, and practical book for professional and enthusiasts alike, on the subject of acting Shakespeare. Jago has created a manual, if you will, for the professional actor, and student alike. There is much here as well for anyone interest in having more grounded, and hands-on knowledge of what is, I believe, some of the greatest writing we will ever know. Jago encourages you to feel the text, both as physical and emotional experience, but above all, a practical one, reclaimed from mere passive observation, and to have a lot of fun along the way. He has created games and exercises that free the text, and liberate the performer."--Publisher's website.
