Acknowledgements

Above all, I am grateful to John Goodwin. His help in the preparation of the manuscript was invaluable. He also encouraged me to be as candid as the law and reasonable courtesy allow.

My warm thanks as well to Maggie Sedwards for all her work in making this book happen, and for urging me on when I was flagging; and to Tim Goodwin who not only compiled the Index but searched out photographs as did the Shakespeare Centre at Stratford-upon-Avon, Helen ONeill at Glyndebourne, and Stephen Wood of the National Theatre.
