I have agreed to organize two sessions for the Medieval and
Renaissance Drama Society next year, and am therefore
requesting abstracts for the following:
1. Kalamazoo, May 2004
"Itinerant players in the sixteenth century"
The plan for this session is _not_ to focus on major
travelling companies, but on the evidence for individuals
and small (unlicensed?) companies. Abstracts dealing with
English and continental sources are both welcome. The time
frame can easily be expanded backwards if there are papers
dealing with the fifteenth century.
2. Leeds, July 2004
"The use of music in early drama"
Richard Rastall has agreed to act as respondent for this
session, and I will therefore ask that completed papers be
submitted to him by mid-May 2004.
Please let me know if you have any questions about these two
sessions.
