Canadian television comedy Slings & Arrows shows the backstage lives of a Shakespearean theatre company. Finding wild success in Canada and abroad, the series won twenty-two television awards, received rave reviews in the United States, and the Brazilian version, Som e Fria, earned audiences of eighteen million viewers. This book not only asks but also answers the question, why Shakespeare today?
, the book proposes, does not merely explore Shakespeare and Canada, but rather the more provocative relationship of Shakespeare as Canada.
Tying together themes of art, theatre, film, culture, and colonialism, this collection investigates the longstanding relevance of Shakespeare through the lens of adaptation.
