This is the first book devoted to the Queen's Men, one of the major
acting companies of the age of Shakespeare. In describing the
troupe's position in the general political situation and the London
theatre scene of the 1580s, the authors break new ground by showing
how Elizabethan theatre history can be refocused by concentrating
on the company which produced the plays rather than on the authors
who wrote them. The book combines a thorough examination of
documentary evidence with textual and critical analysis, to provide
a full account of the characteristics which gave the company its
identity: its acting style, staging methods, touring patterns and
repertoire. The conclusions will interest Elizabethan historians as
well as students and scholars of early modern theatre.
