description: The 1623 Folio of Shakespeare's plays was the first collected edition of the Bard's work. Many of Shakespeare's plays appeared in print there for the first time. This photographic facsimile offers the actor, the director, and every lover of Shakespeare an opportunity to read a First Folio version of the plays, unaltered by modern scholarly editors. Doug Moston's introduction and glossary provide modern actors and readers with an understanding of how the Folio text can work today. His original line-numbering system, printed on each page of the facsimile, allows actors to move through the text with ease.
