by John Lyly (Author)
First performed circa 1590, 'Mother Bombie' is unique among Lyly's comedies in its urban setting and focus upon middle and lower class concerns. Structured upon a Roman new comedy model, the play turns on the tissue of misconceptions surrounding the efforts of four fathers to secure socially advantageous marriages for their heirs.
