"Senelick has painstakingly pieced together the amazing story of
how [the Moscow Art Theatre's production of Hamlet] came about, and
combines it with a detailed, scene-by-scene reconstruction of the
unfinished product.' ... He makes use of what would seem to be
every possible primary source, Russian and English.... In the end,
Senelick does more than reconstruct' Craig's Moscow Hamlet. He
shows how, despite its central flaw, it became the standard from
which to deviate. Until now the material necessary to unshroud the
legend has been scattered all over Europe. Senelick has gathered it
into an exemplary, illuminating study."-Theatre Journal
