Synopsis Series

The ISC Press also publishes the Synopsis Series, small and inexpensive booklets designed to be read while sitting in the audience before the play starts, or in addition to the Readers’ Edition. Each one provides a detailed synopsis and phrases to listen for in each scene; famous quotations and everyday quotations, short essays about pertinent topics, such as the Wyrd Sisters in Macbeth or the trial scene in Merchant of Venice, and questions to think about as you watch or read the play. These are on the press at the moment—check back soon for publication dates!
