Westfall, Suzanne R.
This is the first book to examine early Tudor theater from the perspective of the great households of England. Westfall provides an illuminating account of those aristocrats of the sixteenth century that commissioned, funded, and staged complex and often lavish entertainments for their households, including plays, masques, concerts, dances, and sports.
