Outline of Final Research Achievements

The Restoration period saw an unprecedented influx of foreign talent to the London stage as Charles II personally invited many of them from France and Italy. Yet there have only been a handful of studies on these foreign theatrical entertainers. For this project, I have collected information concerning foreign entertainers who were active on the London stage during the reign of Charles II and analyzed the importance of their contribution to the development of Restoration drama.
