Several famous playwrights of the Elizabethan and Stuart periods,
including Shakespeare, wrote for open-air public theatres and also
for the private, indoor theatres at the palaces at which the court
resided. This book is a full account of such court theatre, and
examines the theatrical entertainments for Elizabeth I, James I and
Charles I. By contrast with the now vanished playhouses of the
time, four of the royal chambers used as theatres survive, and the
author attempts to draw as full a picture as he can of such places,
the physical and aesthetic conditions under which actors worked in
them, and the composition and conduct of court audiences. The book
includes plans and illustrations of the theatres and an appendix
which lists all known court performances of plays and masques
between 1558 and 1652.
