Description
The last in a series of six short films dealing with the art of Shakespeare in Macbeth (see 316-20). A booklet accompanies each program. This program, "A creative rehearsal," offers, in the words of the producers, "an actual rehearsal of Macbeth in which Dr. Joseph directs Barry Boys, Elizabeth Shepherd, and Duncan Ross. . . . This is a revealing look into the way director and actors come to understand what Shakespeare intended, just as the reader of Shakespeare can do for himself when the language of the play is fully understood."
