Reviews

A highly valuable tool for Hispanists and those interested in early modern theatre.
*MODERN LANGUAGE STUDIES*

Jonathan Thacker accomplishes what few are able to achieve by publishing and original and valuable study relevant to varying levels of comedia studies. A practical pedagogical resource that the most seasoned of professors will find simply outstanding. [...] It should most definitely be a required text of any graduate student of the comedia. Without hesitation, I would recommend that serious comedia scholars secure a copy for their collection, for this work is a vademecum of the first order. Its unique compilation of historical development with performance studies and helpful appendices makes this compilation top notch.
*BULLETIN OF THE COMEDIANTES*

The book fulfils its purpose well.
*HISPANIC RESEARCH JOURNAL*

Demonstrates a solid command of the material and a sense of the audience. [...] I strongly recommend A Companion to Golden Age Theatre. [...] A superb reference tool.
*BULLETIN OF HISPANIC STUDIES*
