Provides the first comprehensive examination of every prop in Shakespeare's plays, whether mentioned in stage directions, indicated in dialogue or implied by the action. Offering a witty treatment of the subject, the author delves into historical documents, the business of theatre in Renaissance England, and the plays themselves to explain what audiences might have seen and why it matters.
