More about the book

The life of Philip Massinger is marked by his struggle for financial stability as a playwright in London after leaving Oxford without a degree. Following the death of his father and the loss of financial support, he faced hardships while writing for the Elizabethan stage. His collaboration with Philip Henslowe and later with John Fletcher for the King's Men defined his career. Despite moments of poverty and uncertainty, he continued to produce plays until his sudden death in 1640, leaving a legacy intertwined with the theatrical landscape of his time.
