Viewing Event Record: 'The Crafty Merchant' is licensed to the Lady Elizabeth's Men

Abstract

Sir Henry Herbert licensed a new comedy called 'The Cra Merchant, or Come to my Country House' to Lady Elizabeth's Men on 12 September 1623. Both Ord and Chalmers seem to have attached a sentence about this play being performed at the Red Bull by a minor company in error.
