It shows how traditional readings of this character, both performance-based and scholarly, have been guided and constrained by misogynistic perspectives on female power. Bringing together the author's wealth of insight from a theatre practitioner's perspective and combining it with a scholarly perspective, the book argues that Gertrude need not be limited to sex and motherhood. She could instead be played as Denmark's blood royal Queen, her role in the play then being about female political power. Gertrude's royal status could play out on stage through a variety of possible performance choices for stage design, stage business, acting processes, and the actor's presence - both speaking and silent. The book takes into consideration Shakespeare's source myths, historical studies of the position of queens and the issues concerning them in early modern England, Hamlet's performance history and the text itself.

This is an engaging and insightful interpretation for students and scholars of theatre and performance studies, Shakespeare studies, and theatre practitioners"--
