The First Folio was compiled by two of Shakespeare's fellow actors, John Heminges and Henry Condell. Without it, we would not have half of Shakespeare’s plays today.
Peter Garino, artistic director of the Shakespeare Project of Chicago, examines how the First Folio came to be, its importance to our knowledge and understanding of Shakespeare, and how the Folio is used by actors today in crafting their performances. A must-see for Shakespeare aficionados or those who simply wish to broaden their understanding of Shakespeare.
