"Acting Companies and their Plays in Shakespeare's London "explores
the intimate and dynamic relationship between acting companies and
playwrights in this seminal era in English theatre history.Siobhan
Keenan's analysis includes chapters on the traditions and workings
of contemporary acting companies, playwriting practices, stages and
staging, audiences and patrons, each illustrated with detailed case
studies of individual acting companies and their plays, including
troupes such as Lady Elizabeth's players, 'Beeston's Boys' and the
King's Men and works by Shakespeare, Jonson, Middleton, Brome and
Heywood. We are accustomed to focusing on individual playwrights:
"Acting Companies and their Plays in Shakespeare's London" makes
the case that we also need to think about the companies for which
dramatists wrote and with whose members they collaborated, if we
wish to better understand the dramas of the English Renaissance
stage.
