5.0 out of 5 stars A wonderful intro to a fascinating topic
This is a fascinating book. Under one cover it manages to give a comprehensive account of the Roman theatre, while also providing a detailed description of the author's own ground-breaking research in actually construcitng a temporary Roman stage, and presenting his own translations of Plautus upon it. For once we have scholarship informed by actual theatrical know-how...

This review is from: The Roman Theatre and its Audience (Paperback)
This is a fascinating book. Under one cover it manages to give a comprehensive account of the Roman theatre, while also providing a detailed description of the author's own ground-breaking research in actually construcitng a temporary Roman stage, and presenting his own translations of Plautus upon it. For once we have scholarship informed by actual theatrical know-how and experiment. Beacham writes in an easy but highly informed manner, and his insights are almost always provocative and sometimes exciting. He wears his impressive scholarship lightly. A fine book, and impressive record of innovative research
