Theatrical Provenance
"That Will Be Shall Be" was played by the Admiral's men at the Rose from 30 December 1596 through 5 July 1597.
Probable Genre(s)
The title appears proverbial, but no specific proverb has been linked to it. Its subject matter, therefore, is unknown.
Possible Narrative and Dramatic Sources or Analogues
No doubt there were circumstances in which early moderns said "what will be shall be," but no stories have specifically been associated with the phrase.
References to the Play
Information welcome.
Critical Commentary
Gurr considers it worth noting that Henslowe differentiates "That Will Be Shall Be" from "Jeronimo," "Alexander and Lodowick," and "A Woman Hard to Please" in a block of entries (Fol. 23) by specifying that its item in that block corresponds to its "second time of playinge" whereas items for the other plays correspond to their maiden performance (p. 224, n.57).
