She is currently working as a freelance artist, writer and critic, and is a Visiting Research Fellow in English at Canterbury Christ Church University, Kent, UK. Her publications include writings on nineteenth-century theatre and the novel, visual art, and performance practice (in The Dickensian and Nineteenth Century Theatre and Film). Her work has been exhibited at the Tate Gallery, Liverpool, and she is an Associate Books Editor with PopMatters, an online journal of popular culture. She lives near Bath, England, her spiritual home. Kelli Marshall is a lecturer of Media and Cinema Studies at DePaul University. Her current research interests span two rather disparate fields: Shakespeare in film and popular culture, and the film musical, specifically the star image and work of Hollywood song-and-dance man Gene Kelly. Kelli's scholarly work may be found in traditional print journals like Literature/Film Quarterly and the Journal of Popular Film and Television as well as in open-access publications like Flow TV, In Media Res, and Bright Lights Film Journal.
Review:
"For all readers [...] who are at least as interested in what Shakespeare is becoming as opposed to what it has been, this makes for thought-provoking and illuminating reading." - James Williams, PopMatters (January 2013). "Gabrielle Malcolm and Kelli Marshall's collection of essays, Locating Shakespeare in the Twenty-First Century, establishes a broader interest in 'locations'-primarily in relation to genre. The essays prioritize Shakespeare's presence in virtual spheres in addition to 'some of the more traditional locations of Shakespeare (film and television)' (p. 4). [...] An interest in representations on screen frames the book's broader engagement with twenty-first-century literary representations.' - Elinor Parsons, Years Work in English Studies, 93:1 (2014)
