Early Cambridge Theatres College, University, and Town Stages, 1464-1720

This book attempts a reconstruction of early Cambridge theatres in the context of the professional theatres of Renaissance London. Most of the college halls and chapels in which scaffold-theatres were constructed still stand and records survive in abundance. Alan Nelson surveys some dozen Cambridge college stages, the university's commencement stage, and extra-mural theatrical sites used by travelling professional companies.Nelson, Alan H. is the author of 'Early Cambridge Theatres College, University, and Town Stages, 1464-1720' with ISBN 9780521431774 and ISBN 0521431778.
