Review: Shakespeare: The Man Who Pays the Rent by Judi Dench with Brendan O’Hea

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to sit down with Judi Dench and chat about acting and Shakespeare? Shakespeare: The Man Who Pays the Rent is your opportunity. 

Written as transcribed conversations with Brendan O’Hea, Dame Dench dishes on her experience acting in Shakespearean plays. It is a fascinating introspection into the process of and community created in stage acting. I especially loved the reflective chapters on the profession of acting and the impact of Shakespeare.  

If you love Shakespeare, Judi Dench, or reading memoirs about actors, grab a cuppa and get cozy with this book. 

Thank you to St. Martin’s Press for the opportunity to read this ARC. This review is my honest opinion.
