Steven Adler examines the dynamic life and workings of the theatre company responsible for some of the worlds most compelling performances and influential productions of the last forty years, including Marat/Sade, A Midsummer Nights Dream, Les Misrables, Les Liaisons Dangereuses, and Nicholas Nickleby.Rough Magic provides a thorough analysis of the many strands of theatrical activity on both sides of the footlights that coalesce in the artistic vigor of the Royal Shakespeare Company. Adler traces the companys evolution from its origins in 1879 as a weeklong festival presented by StratforduponAvon as a birthday homage to its native son, to its current incarnation as one of the worlds most distinguished institutional theatres. He probes the aspirations and achievements of the RSCs four successive artistic directors: Peter Hall, Trevor Nunn, Terry Hands, and Adrian Noble. He offers a comprehensive view of the design and aesthetics of the RSCs five theatres in Stratford and London, and explores the intricate process of crafting a repertoire at home and on tour that responds to the needs of the artists as well as the demands of the box office.Vivid illustrations, personal observation, research, and dozens of interviews with current and former members of the Royal Shakespeare Company unite to produce Rough Magic.
