This book offers a survey of how female and male characters in English Renaissance theatre participated and interacted in musical activities, both inside and outside the contemporary societal decorum. Wong examines the theatrical functions of music in the context of non-Shakespearean Renaissance drama, discussing dramaturgical meanings of music and its association with gender, love, and erotomania in Renaissance plays.
