Designed to introduce the student or general reader to a largely
unfamiliar area of Elizabethan theatrical activity, Five
Elizabethan progress entertainments focuses on a group of
entertainments mounted for the monarch in the closing years of her
reign. Richly annotated, and prefaced by a substantial
introduction, the texts enable an understanding of the motives
underlying not only the progress itself, but the choice of
locations the monarch elected to visit and the personal and
political preoccupations of those with whom she determined to stay.
Selected for their diversity, the entertainments exhibit the
tensions underlying some royal visits, the lavish expenditure
entailed for the monarch's hosts and the overlap in terms of both
material and authorship between the progress entertainments and the
more widely studied products of the sixteenth-century stage. -- .
