AB  - Describes Carmelo Bene's "scenic writing and the actorial machine" with a focus on Bene's twentieth-century adaptationsof Macbeth and Hamlet. Concludes with poem by author, "shakespeare didn't work for me" (52-53). Suggests that Bene's ideas and works (including "happenings") disrupt the passive audience dynamic and so can be used as a way to decolonize Shakespaere in South Africa and beyond. English summary, 39.
