- The above monograph is the product of six years in-depth research and comprises a comprehensive overview of theatrical production and material staging in the early years of the Restoration period. It involved analyses of (i) over 14,000 stage directions in 72 new plays performed at the two patent London theatres in the period 1660-74 (necessitating the design and construction of a dedicated database) and (ii) analyses of an extensive range of other contextualising primary sources, many in manuscript. Primary sources were consulted at archives including the British Library; the library of All Souls, Oxford; and Chatsworth House.
