Starting with the Stratford Memorial Theatre company's version of Richard III in 1910, these continue today with the highly successful RSC Live from Stratford-upon-Avon cinema broadcasts. Among the iconic productions have been The Wars of the Roses (BBC, 1965), Peter Brook's film of King Lear (1971), Channel's 4's epic version of Nicholas Nickleby (1982) and Hamlet with David Tennant (BBC, 2009). Drawing on interviews with actors and directors, The RSC on Screen explores this remarkable history of collaborations between stage and screen and considers key questions about adaptation that concern all those involved in theatre, film and television. John Wyver is a broadcasting historian and the television producer of Hamlet as well as of RSC Live from Stratford-upon-Avon, and so is uniquely well-placed both to provide a vivid account of the RSC's television and film productions as well as to contribute an award-winning practitioner's insights into screen adaptation's rich potential and numerous challenges"--  |c Provided by publisher.
