Shoemaker's Holiday
The Shoemaker's Holiday is an Elizabethan play by Thomas Dekker, first performed in 1599. This city comedy explores the life of Rowland Lacy, an aristocrat who disguises himself as a Dutch shoemaker to win the love of Rose Oateley, a middle-class girl. The play highlights themes of class conflict and social mobility, as Lacy navigates his new identity and the challenges that arise from it. Notably, it depicts the bustling life of London and the rise of a shoemaker to prominence, reflecting the dynamics of Elizabethan society.
