- This is a single-authored monograph, a longer form output, and the result of sustained research project which re-examines the historical and contemporary cultural work of open-air Shakespeares, from late-Victorian productions through to site-specific and activist works, identifying their environmental significance. It draws on extensive ethnographic research undertaken by the author amongst audiences in the UK, and the analysis of substantial archival materials from England and North America, arguing that insights from the environmental humanities can transform our knowledge of this popular practice and contribute to understanding the role of weathering as performance in times of ecological crisis.
