Drama Classic Collections

Each volume in the Drama Classic Collections series brings together the most popular plays from a single author or a particular period, offering students, actors and theatregoers a series of uncluttered, accessible editions, accompanied by comprehensive introductions.

Where the originals are in English, there is a glossary of unfamiliar words and phrases. Where the originals are in a foreign language, the translations aim to be both actable and accurate – and are made by translators whose work is regularly staged in the professional theatre.
