Step into the world of Renaissance drama where comedy, passion, power, and romance take center stage in London’s playhouses. Get a closeup view of the emerging middle class and their penchant for murder, mayhem, and revenge in this snapshot of Elizabethan theater and its contemporary audience. Ripley illuminates the women featured in works by William Shakespeare and his contemporaries as these playwrights sometimes ridicule, but often admire feminine entrepreneurial spirit and intelligence.

Come along and embrace the pastimes produced by Renaissance culture to discover how early modern drama remains relevant today.
