A Jovial Crew
''A Jovial Crew, or the Merry Beggars'' is a Caroline era stage play, a comedy written by Richard Brome. First staged in 1641 or 1642 and first published in 1652, it is generally ranked as one of Brome's best plays, and one of the best comedies of the Caroline period; in one critic's view, Brome's ''The Antipodes'' and ''A Jovial Crew'' "outrank all but the best of Jonson."〔Catherine M. Shaw, quoted in Logan and Smith, p. 182.〕
==Publication==
The play was first published in 1652, in a quarto printed by James Young for the booksellers Edward Dod and Nathaniel Ekins.〔Dod and Ekins shared a shop at the sign of the Gun in Ivy Lane; Plomer, pp. 65, 70.〕 The volume contains Brome's dedication of the play to Thomas Stanley. The quarto also features prefatory verses composed by James Shirley, John Tatham, and Alexander Brome among others. The play was Brome's most popular work during its own historical era, and was reprinted in 1661 (by bookseller Henry Brome),〔Henry Brome was no relation to the playwright; he joined Ekins at the sign of the Gun in Ivy Lane sometime before 1659 (Dod had died or retired in 1657), and continued after Ekins left the business in 1660. Henry Brome co-published the 1659 edition of Brome's dramas, ''Five New Plays'', with Andrew Crooke. He was succeeded in his business by his son, another Henry Brome; Plomer, p. 34.〕 1684 (by Joseph Hindmarsh), and 1708 (C. Brome).
