Let's Goe to Heare a Play!
with Lady Marguerite Honoree du Cheneau
Five items that might have belonged to a woman (and theater fan) in 1600's London. A kirtle, gown, and a set of wrist and neck ruffs, as well as a printed copy of Henry IV, part 2 (printing plays! What will they think of next!), and a sample of the dialect the words she heard onstage might just have sounded like.
