In Lent of 1600 Will Kemp, the famous comic actor who had played in Shakespeare’s company, morris-danced all the way from London to Norwich for a wager. His own account follows each day’s journey, the crowds and hangers-on, the muddy lanes where he sank to the waist, and the welcomes and mishaps of the road.
A unique and funny Elizabethan document, edited by Alexander Dyce, for lovers of theatre history and folk dance. Download the free EPUB.
