Henslowe calls Orlando an 'old play' in 1592 - did it enter the repertory in 1591, says MW? (I think) #b4shax1:10 PM - Jun 29, 2017

Famous theatrical cheat: this play was sold to both the Queens Men and the Admiral's Men. Presumably fell off the back of an ox-cart #b4shax1:12 PM - Jun 29, 2017

I don’t think Henslowe calls it an ‘old play’. I believe MW is suggesting that bc it looks to be at the end of its repertory cycle. #b4shax twitter.com/notrockyhorror…1:12 PM - Jun 29, 2017
