Theatrical Provenance

The only record of performance for Panecia is the Revels Account, in which it is attributed to Leicester's men, who performed both at court, in London, and in the provinces.

Probable Genre(s)

Romance

Wiggins, Catalogue #567 offers ""Contemporary" as a possible category of genre; alsom without much enthusiasm, he considers possible corruptions of the title for some other word.

Possible Narrative and Dramatic Sources or Analogues

Information welcome.

References to the Play

Information welcome.

Critical Commentary

F. G. Fleay, BCED has no opinion on the narrative source of this play (2.289, #330). Chambers, ES opines that Panecia, which was rehearsed for the Court, "was probably either their play of 26 December ... or that of 1 January 1575, in which there were chimney sweepers" (2.88).

For What It's Worth

The Revels Accounts itemize various properties such as a rock and activities such as the hire of horses and a wagon, but it is unclear which (if any) of these entries were acquired specifically for "Panecia" or one (or several) of the other plays offered in the 1574-5 season.
