Announcing our newest Folger Edition—Macbeth the DVD Edition!

It's the Folger Edition text of the play you've always depended on but better with a companion DVD of Folger Theatre's acclaimed 2008 production of the play directed by Teller and Aaron Posner.

 

The full-length film includes bonus features on magic in Shakespeare, stage combat, and exclusive commentary from the directors, cast, and crew.

 

The edition also includes a special foreword by the directors.

 

Part of the Folger Shakespeare Library editions of Shakespeare published by Simon & Schuster.
