The plays include: “Fulgens and Lucrece”, by Henry Medwall; “The Four PP”, by John Haywood; “Ralph Roiser Doister”, by Nicholas Udall; “Suposes”, by George Gascoigne, and “Gammer Gurton’s Needle”. This fantastic collection is highly recommended for all fans of the stage, and constitutes a must-read for comedy lovers. Many classic books such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.

    Georges Feydeau / Laurence Senelick

       “Plenty of glamorous backstabbing, diva dissing and sexual double-crossing…has every right to claim the name Dynasty for itself.  But the title character in Betty Shamieh’s bouncy, bumpy comic melodrama is the real thing. A queen, I mean, and not just of the self-dramatizing type. Scratch that. She’s more than a queen. She’s a pharaoh, one Hatshepsut, who reigned over Egypt ...
