"For there it is, crackt in an hundred shivers..." My article "Destroying Things on the Early Modern English Stage" is now available in the journal Early Modern Literary Studies.

Look for "Destroying Things on the Early Modern Stage" soon in "Early Modern Literary Studies" and read all about how (and why) the early modern theater broke, ripped, burned, smashed, tore, and ate things up. #earlymoderndrama #theater #performancestudies #theaterhistory #Shakespeare #theaterprops #theatercostumes
