Too Good to be True (Chettle, Hathway, and Smith).
Malcolm King of Scots (Massey).
Love Parts Friendship (Chettle and Smith).
Jephthah (Dekker and Munday).
Tobias (Chettle).
The Bristol Tragedy (Day).
Caesar's Fall, or, The Two Shapes (Dekker, Drayton, Middleton, Munday, and Webster).
At least ten of these appear to have been played: 2 Cardinal Wolsey (August), 3 Blind Beggar of Bethnal Green (September), Judas (January), The Conquest of the West Indies (January), Malcolm King of Scots (April), Love Parts Friendship (May), 1 Cardinal Wolsey (June), Jephthah (July), and at uncertain dates, Tobias and probably The Bristol Tragedy.[1] None is now extant. The unfinished plays were The Humorous Earl of Gloucester with his Conquest of Portugal (Wadeson), 2 Tom Dough[2] (Day and Haughton), The Orphan's Tragedy (Chettle),[3] 2 The Six Clothiers (Hathway, Haughton, and Smith),[4] The Spanish Fig (Anon.),[5] Richard Crookback (Jonson),[6] A Danish Tragedy (Chettle),[7] and A Medicine for a Curst Wife (Dekker).[8] There was considerable activity of revival during the year. Six old plays belonging to the 1594-7 repertory, for some of which the company already held the properties,[9] were bought
- ↑ A note preserved at Dulwich (Henslowe Papers, 58) indicates that licensing fees were in arrear on 4 Aug. 1602 for 'baxsters tragedy, Tobias Comedy, Jepha Judg of Israel & the Cardinall, Loue parts frendshipp'. But of course Warner's identification of 'baxsters tragedy' with The Bristol Tragedy is conjectural.
- ↑ There is no 1 Tom Dough, unless this was an intended sequel to The Six Yeomen of the West.
- ↑ Already begun by Chettle in 1599.
- ↑ This may be identical with 1 The Six Clothiers, which is not called by Henslowe a 'first part', if, as is possible, that was a sequel to The Six Yeomen of the West.
- ↑ Possibly finished later as Dekker and Rowley's The Noble Spanish Soldier. But it may have been an old play re-written, for C. R. Baskervill (M. P. xiv. 16) quotes from the preface to H. O.'s translation of Vasco Figueiro's Spaniard's Monarchie (1592), 'albeit it hath no title fetched from the Bull within Bishopsgate, as a figge for a Spaniard'.
- ↑ I suppose this was unfinished. The only entry is on 22 June 1602, 'vnto Bengemy Johnsone . . . in earneste of a boocke called Richard Crockbacke & for new adicyons for Jeronymo the some of x^{ll}'. Jonson had already had £2 on 25 Sept. 1601 'vpon his writtinge of his adicians in Geronymo'. Unless Richard Crookback was nearly complete, his prices must have risen a good deal.
- ↑ Possibly finished later as Hoffman (1631).
- ↑ The £4 paid was cancelled and then reinstated, but the book was evidently transferred to Worcester's men (cf. p. 227).
- ↑ Cf. p. 168.
