Behind this month's staging of a 'lost' Shakespeare play
csmonitor.com: "Playwright Charles L. Mee remembers the phone call. A Harvard scholar, Stephen Greenblatt, had been awarded a $1.5 million grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and wanted to use the funds to explore how a dramatist crafts a play. Professor Greenblatt had chosen to observe Mr. Mee at work, noting that Mee's cut-and-paste methods of 'resituating and appropriating' materials reminded him of William Shakespeare's manner of writing."
