A review by zanm
A Chaste Maid in Cheapside by Thomas Middleton

fast-paced

3.5

Early modern plays are like 5 drunk plot lines sort of overlapping and then completely converging at the end and this is no different. It's a prime example. Idk, did playwrights think people would get bored if there was not Literally So Much Happening all the time? 

Anyway, not terribly hard to understand (ish) ((once I read through the lens of Wikipedia)) and generally kind of funny and not the worst. At least there's a happy ending?

If I had a nickel for every time I've read an early modern play where characters leapt out of coffins and then got married immediately after I would have two nickels.
