My apologies for having typed a slash instead of a dot in the second URL (for 
Jane Edwardes' preview) in the message below.

Really interesting question about early stage business. I'm sure that Judy 
Prince would enjoy reading Alan C. Dessen, Recovering Shakespeare's Theatrical 
Vocabulary (1995); and Alan C. Dessen and Leslie Thomson, A Dictionary of Stage 
Directions in English Drama 1580-1642 (1999), definitely a candidate for top 10 
books on Shakespeare from the 90s, except that it's still entirely current.
