This article presents William B. Worthen’s latest book: Shakespeare, Theatre, Technicity (Cambridge, 2020), which offers a reflection on staging Shakespeare in the age of digital media domination. This publication by the renowned Shakespeare scholar is an important voice in the discussion of theatre as a hypermedium, that is, a medium that reaches for other media in order to establish its historical version in a particular period. Worthen’s concept is anchored not only in media theories, but above all in the philosophy of Bernard Stiegler, who regards the human being is a technical being, using material and technical prostheses to transcend his/her being-towards-death and to be able to exist beyond purely biological conditions. One of Worthen’s crucial arguments for considering theatre as a hypermedium is his extensive analysis of the practices, myths and dilemmas concerning the reconstruction of traditional Elizabethan theater; he defines them as remediation practices.
