Stage directions: from page to playhouse

Stage directions are a new research area among scholars of early modern drama. ‘Stage direction’ is a term that invites the reader of a play to imagine the written dialogue as dramatic action staged in the theatre. Stage directions can be remnants of a text used for performance, or equally, they may be put in after performance, to evoke action for readers.
