Review (PDF) The Norton Anthology Of Drama (Second Edition) (Vol. One-Volume)
The only anthology of drama that’s a Norton. The leading anthology of drama offers the most generous collection of major works (66 plays in all, 7 of them new) along with carefully prepared introductions, annotations, and texts. With a newly conceived illustration program focused on contemporary performance and a new color feature, “Plays in Performance,” the Second Edition now brings the stage to the page more vividly than any other anthology.

Great collection - perfect for my modern european theatre class. Good variety, and gives a short biography of each author before the play, giving the reader a greater understanding for the context. Each text also contains footnotes of words or references which may need clarification. Very useful. Division into two volumes makes each book a more readable size. Good value for money.
Excellent play selections. Good book for the years to come as a theatre student
I love the Norton editions that give background and notes on the text. This was very easy and timely to get for my college course.
As a vocal coach and new director who needs to learn about the various styles out there, this book has all-in-one. I can get a great sense of the language of just about any playwright without having to go to the library and take out a lot of books.
It is a great collection of Plays scopeing many periods and styles I would recommend it to anyone in the arts
The books are actually lighter than other extra large textbooks. Extra bonus! Hope everyone finds this review informative and helpful.
I bought a used book set for about $60 cheaper than any other store was selling them! Love it!!! Thanks!
