''Aglaura'' is a late Caroline era stage play, written by Sir John Suckling. Several aspects of the play have led critics to treat it as a key development and a marker of the final decadent phase of English Renaissance drama. ==Performance== Suckling's earliest play, ''Aglaura'' was staged in 1637 by the King's Men at the Blackfriars Theatre — not because they thought it was a good play or a potential popular hit, but because Suckling subsidized its production, reportedly spending between £300 and £400. The acting company was paid with the production's lavish costumes (lace cuffs and ruffs made of cloth of silver and cloth of gold), a form of hand-me-down compensation that the King's men accepted only in the 1630s, at a time when the company's fortunes were in relative decline. (When the same company staged a revival of John Fletcher's ''The Faithful Shepherdess'' in 1634, they used the sumptuous costumes that had been created for Queen Henrietta Maria's masque of that year, ''The Shepherd's Paradise;'' they were then allowed to keep the costumes.) A 1638 production of ''Aglaura'' at the English royal court borrowed Inigo Jones's scenery from ''Luminalia,'' the Queen's masque of that year. Again, the hand-me-down nature of the proceedings is a noteworthy departure from the practices of the 1620s and earlier.
