John Lowin and the English Theatre, 1603–1647

In the first full-length study devoted to John Lowin, Wooding provides a comprehensive overview of the life and times of one of the greatest actors of seventeenth-century England. She examines his involvement in the Jacobean/Caroline world as citizen, performer, and manager of King's Men's Company, and contextualizes his life and career within the socio-economic and political framework of the period.
