This text presents a full range of drama from Ancient Greece to the present. It features an informal tone and an apparatus that provides students with reading strategies for the 27 plays anthologized in the text and discussions on how to critique them. An emphasis on writing explains how to write an analytical paper, a review of a play and a short play. This edition, supported by pedagogy such as biographical notes and introductions for each play, presents more plays from outside the traditional canon, including works by such playwrights as Gertrude Stein, Joyce Carol Oates, Luis Valdez and Harvey Fierstein. Other new features include more new one-act plays and new "Contexts", which provide comments on 11 plays written by the playwrights themselves.
