Drama in the Elizabethan Age
After defeating the Spanish Armada, England became intensely interested in the past. (Patriotic) Historical plays thrived.
Playwrights were practical men, bent on making a living All parts were played by men
Plays were written to be acted, not read. Once a playwright sold his play, he had
no personal right to it.
