The Admiral's Men is the acting company that staged Christopher
Marlowe's plays while its companion company was giving the first
performances of Shakespeare. Unlike the Shakespeare company, there
is plenty of evidence available telling us what the Admiral's
company did and how it staged its plays. Not only do we know far
more about the design of its two playhouses, the Rose and the
Fortune, than we know of any other playhouse from the time,
including the Globe, but we have Henslowe's Diary. This recorded
everything the Admiral's company performed from 1594 to 1600 and
after, what the company bought to stage its plays, who performed
which parts, who wrote which plays and even how much they were
paid. The first history to be written of the Admiral's Men, this
book tells us not only a great deal about the company's own work,
but also how the Shakespeare company operated.
