RSC Complete Works Edition

The First Folio, the first printed edition of Shakespeare's plays, is a literary icon and is the version of Shakespeare's text preferred by many actors and directors, yet astonishingly no-one has edited it in its entirety for over three hundred years.

The RSC's new edition of William Shakespeare's Complete Works contains the 36 plays included in the First Folio, the Sonnets, Venus and Adonis, The Rape of Lucrece, The Phoenix and the Turtle, Pericles, The Two Noble Kinsmen and a scene from Sir Thomas More.
