The setting for the 'Praeludium' to Thomas Goffe's 'The Careless Shepherdess,' performed at Salisbury Court, is the stage of the playhouse itself. One of the characters complains of the expense of the performance: the shilling he has paid is too much. He'll go instead to the Red Bull or Fortune 'and there see / A Play for two pense, with a Jig to boot.'
