Frier Bacon and Frier Bungay is a play written by Robert Greene, first published in 1594. This particular edition of the play is an acting version published in 1905. The play is set in England during the reign of King Henry III and follows the story of two friars, Bacon and Bungay, who dabble in magic and alchemy. Bacon creates a machine that can fly, and the two friars use it to impress the king and gain favor. However, their actions have unintended consequences, and they must use their magical knowledge to save the kingdom from destruction. The play explores themes of ambition, power, and the dangers of playing with forces beyond our control. This acting version includes stage directions and character descriptions to aid in production.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
