The Shakespearian Playing Companies is the first history of the professional acting companies who brought drama to London in Shakespeare's time. Andrew Gurr's ground-breaking book draws on the most up-to-date research to provide a general history of company development from the 1560s to 1642 (when by Act of Parliament they were closed down), together with detailed and fascinating accounts of each of the forty companies that played in London during the period. This major work of scholarship will take its place as an indispensable reference work and the authoritative history for all scholars and students of Renaissance drama.
