Shakespeare in the Theatre offers a rich, varied, and wonderfully evocative collection of reviews of Shakespearian performances from early times to the present. Theatre generates an excitement that stimulates fine prose, and here we have accounts by major writers that include:

- Hazlitt on Edmund Kean as Richard III
- George Bernard Shaw on Forbes-Robertson's Hamlet
- Evelyn Waugh on Olivier
- Virginia Woolf on Twelfth Night at the Old Vic

Ranging right across the Shakespearian canon, these pieces represent a survey of landmark productions and performances from Garrick to Peter Brook, Betterton to McKellen, Siddons to Dench. The reviews are helpfully introduced and annotated by the editor, Stanley Wells.
