Synopsis
Tudor dramatists were aware of the benefits of laughter, and this is shown in this range of plays, including "Jacke Jugeler", "Roister Doister", "Gammer Gurton's Nedle", and "Mother Bombie".
The author's introduction sets the scene and makes an appraisal of the context and achievement of the plays.
