An original member of the Queen's men in 1583, John Singer was famous for clown parts; his career extended into the 1590s, by which time he was playing with the Admiral's men. Entries in Philip Henslowe's diary indicate that he handled a variety of business for the company such s "witnessing transactions, acknowledging company debts, borrowing various sums of money, and ... authorizing a payment" (Nungezer, p. 327). He accompanied Thomas Towne on the the business trip in 1597 that took them "into the contrey" (Fol. 235). He contributed at least one entertainment to the Admiral's men's offerings: "Syngers vallentarey" ("Singer's Voluntary") (Fol. 109).
