An exciting revision with a dynamic mix of teachable classics and new, diverse plays.
Instructors love The Norton Anthology of Drama because it contains an ideal balance of teachable classics and exciting contemporary plays. It provides the essential classic plays instructors need to teach alongside exciting new selections that reflect the dynamism and diversity of theater. Headnotes and critical annotations underscore the vitality of theatre from its beginnings to the contemporary stage, and the Short History of Theater section in the Introduction highlights the essential events and artists in theater history from Ancient Greece to the present. The Fourth Edition combines the Third Edition’s volumes into a single expanded anthology of selections.
Informed by a survey of more than 150 instructors, the Fourth Edition includes thirty-one of the most popular works from previous editions, plus seven new plays. Available for the first time as an ebook enriched with new videos, the Fourth Edition offers the best value and reading experience for students, and is the easiest volume for instructors to assign for any course on drama, theater history, performance, or playwriting.
