Charles II Drama Satire |
| Notes: | Thomason copy dated: 'March 15, 1659' [ie. 1660]. Note at the head of the sheet: 'As it is to be acted at the Red Bull in St. Johns street by a Company of Blind Bloomsbury Fidlers, the ablest now extant'. No records appear to exist suggesting it was ever actually performed. Satirical dialogue between Parliamentarians, including John Hewson, Thomas Harrison, Thomas Scott, Henry Marten and Edmund Ludlow. It is predominantly a satire against those figures, but it concludes with a prediction of the imminent return of Charles II. |
