Symposium: “A Symposium on Early Modern Verbatim Theatre”, The Anatomy Museum, King’s College London (Strand Campus), 6 May 2016, 12.30pm-5.30pm:
In a series of short talks, a roundtable, and a performance workshop, this interdisciplinary symposium will explore the intersections between the study of early modern ‘lost’ plays and contemporary theatrical practice, drawing on the expertise of early modern theatre scholars, social historians, and verbatim theatre practitioners. Join us as we experiment with staging records from a disturbing Jacobean lawsuit surrounding the mistreatment of an elderly widow, Anne Elsdon. This controversial lawsuit led to a play by Dekker, Ford, Rowley and Webster, Keep the Widow Waking, for performance at the Red Bull playhouse. The play is now lost, but the records will survive; this symposium will explore whether we can approach these records as a performance text, creating a form of early modern verbatim theatre. Participants include Professor Laura Gowing (KCL), Dr Maggie Inchley (QMUL), Dr Sylvan Baker (Central), Ben Hadley (On the Button Theatre), and Harriet Madeley (author of The Listening Room), and actors Virginia Denham, Simona Bitmate, Andrew Murton, and George Johnston. The event is organised by Dr Lucy Munro (KCL) and Dr Emma Whipday (UCL).
Seminar: “Lost Plays and their Contexts”, led by Roslyn L. Knutson, David McInnis and Matthew Steggle at the 45th annual meeting of the Shakespeare Association of America, 5-8 April 2017, Atlanta, Georgia:
From “Cardenio” to Martin Wiggins’s British Drama: A Catalogue to the Lost Plays Database, over the last five years lost drama has become a topic of increasing interest and urgency in Shakespeare studies. This new field has been made possible by various factors: the rise of repertory studies and historicized performance studies; changing ideas of how a playscript relates to a play (something exemplified by Tiffany Stern’s book Documents of Performance); and the availability of new digital resources. New models are emerging of how to think about plays whose script is not extant. This seminar asks: can we further develop these models and techniques, and can we extend them beyond London playhouses to lost works other than drama?
Digital Room: The LPD was one of the resources displayed at the inaugural SAA Digital Room at the St. Louis conference, 2014.
Seminar: “Lost Plays in Early Modern England”, led by David McInnis and Matthew Steggle at the 41st annual meeting of the Shakespeare Association of America, 27-30 March 2013, Toronto, Ontario:
There are at least 550 early modern plays for which there survives some evidence, but not a full playscript. Papers in this seminar might attend to specific lost plays, considering repertory practices, playhouses and playing companies, audiences and playwrights. Alternatively, participants may engage with issues pertaining to “clumping” vs. “splitting” of titles; what it means to speculate “responsibly” about lost plays; the nature of scholarly collaboration in researching lost plays; the role of digital resources in theater history.

Nicol, David. “A Tragedy of the Plantation of Virginia”, in the “Shakespearean Scene Writing” workshop led by Scott Maisano at the 2015 meeting of the Shakespeare Association of America (SAA) in Vancouver, Canada:
This scene attempts to imaginatively resurrect a tantalizing lost anonymous play entitled A Tragedy of the Plantation of Virginia, licensed by the Master of the Revels in 1623. This enigmatic entry has been the object of much fascination, because if it had survived, The Plantation of Virginia would have been the earliest known English play to be set in the North American colonies. As it is, that honour goes instead to Aphra Behn’s Widow Ranter, written some sixty years later. Given its date, the play was most likely about the Jamestown Massacre of 1622, but I have decided instead to imagine that it was about Pocahontas and Captain John Smith; after all, Smith himself claimed in 1630 that he was moved to publish his memoirs because “they have acted my fatall Tragedies upon the Stage”. My intention, then, was to imagine what a 1620s play about Pocahontas might have been like and to attempt to write a scene from it. The scene in question is from the beginning of Act 5 and dramatizes Smith’s awkward and enigmatic encounter with Pocahontas and her husband John Rolfe at a social gathering in Brentford shortly before her death. The direct sources include Smith’s memoirs and other Jacobean narratives of Pocahontas and the Jamestown colony. The scene also borrows and reworks passages from John Fletcher's The Island Princess and Michael Drayton's Poly-Olbion.
Jensen, Freya Cox. "Making History…" workshop, in the 2017 Being Human festival, at The Walronds, Collumpton:
This is a chance to get creative with the past. For centuries, artists and writers have used the past as an inspiration for new works: from the history paintings of Raphael and Reynolds, to Hilary Mantel’s Wolf Hall. This event gives you a chance to explore your artistic side, responding to particular stories from history to create your own art or piece of creative writing. We will focus on the kinds of histories being told and constructed in the Tudor and Stuart period.
Participants focused on Page of Plymouth and Cox of Collumpton, results of which can be seen in Jensen's blog post about the event.
