Texts are available at the Suffolk Bookstore, as well as Amazon or Barnes and Noble on line. These texts are essential to the course. I have requested used copies of the Brustein text and inexpensive "Dover Thrift Editions" and less expensive or used copies of the plays when possible.
Any editions of the plays can be used and 9th - 11th editions of the Brockett may be used.
