The Prisoners (play) - Location

Location

The collected edition also specifies the city in which Killigrew wrote each drama. Almost all of the plays were written in the various cities in Europe — Paris, Venice, Naples, Florence, Turin, Madrid, even Basel in Switzerland — where Killigrew lived during his Continental travels (1635-41) and his years in exile during the Commonwealth era (1647–60). Only The Prisoners was written at home in England, in London.
