Sound Effects: Hearing The Early Modern Stage (Revels Plays Companion Library)

Blending theatre history and sensory studies, this book recaptures the sound of early modern drama from 1576 to 1625 and exposes the considerable noise of its performance. Acknowledging the intangibility of sound as a subject, this work also offers new theatrical vocabulary in order to describe the distinct kinds of sound heard on the early modern stage and to identify sound's effect on the playgoers who hear it.
