Macbeth is Book One in the eight-book series called Shakespeare At Home.
Carmen Khan and Jack Armstrong, in their thirty years at The Philadelphia Shakespeare Theatre, have
created dozens of Shakespeare productions.
Time and again they have seen that, although there are already several major editions of these luminous classics in print, each with its own valuable contribution to make, there is none that provides everything the reader needs to understand the play.
So, they have created their own edition, from a director's viewpoint, which distills their detailed notes on every line of the play - what is being said, why it's being said, what the drama of the scene is, and why Shakespeare included it. In other words, everything you need, whether to perform the play in front of an audience of thousands, or just to read it to yourself.
The Shakespeare At Home series is an ideal addition to the libraries of homeschooling parents as well any school library.
