Research interests/current work
My principal research interests are English Renaissance drama, particularly Marlowe, Shakespeare and Ford, and film adaptations of literary texts.
I have just finished 'Relocating Shakespeare and Austen on Screen' for Palgrave. Current projects include editing The Fancies, Chaste and Noble and The Broken Heart for the Oxford Complete John Ford, and The Lady's Trial for the Revels. PhD topics which I am currently supervising include Marlowe, Shakespeare's history plays in production, a critical edition of William Sampson's The Vow Breaker, and male poisoners in English Renaissance drama.
I am happy to say that all three of the PhD students whom I have recently supervised to completion now hold academic posts.
