Notes
Notes
Evidence from Robert Armin's Foole upon Foole (London, 1600). The troupe was touring in the West Midlands during 1595--7 (during which time Armin was a member). Includes reference to the antics of the troupe's clown, Grumball, and mentions his performing in 'gentlemen's houses.' Anecdote also mentions the troupe leaving Evesham for Pershore, Worcestershire. Record continues on p 377
