Viewing Event Record: Stow's MS 'Survey of London' gives a slightly different location for the Curtain and Theatre than the published edition

Abstract

The manuscript of John Stow's 'Survey of London' provides slightly different details regarding the situation of the Curtain and Theatre playhouses than the first published 1598 edition. Stow locates both theatres on 'the back syde of holy well, towards the filde' instead of on 'the Southwest side towards the field.'
