Abstract

The single most valuable resource for theatre historians, and of particular significance for students of repertory studies, Philip Henslowe’s Diary is a rich and complex document that has been pored over by scholars. This account book, containing information about companies, playwrights, plays and actors associated with the Rose playhouse in the 1590s, provides key information about the scheduling of Turk plays, especially during a five-year period, 1592–97, when the records are most detailed. This chapter focuses on company practices at the Rose, and concludes with a discussion of the significance of stage properties connected with Turk plays recorded in inventories Henslowe had compiled in 1598.
