  abstract: Travelling Players in Shakespeare's England is the first extended study of professional theatre outside Renaissance London. Traditionally, studies of Shakespearean theater have focused on the metropolis, yet professional non-metropolitan dramatic activity thrived in this era. The London-based players regularly left the capital for tours of the country and other professional acting companies were regionally based. Travelling Players examines the touring practices and performances of Elizabethan and Jacobean travelling players and the venues in which they performed.
