Abstract
The Epilogue examines later petitions against the Blackfriars playhouse and their possible influence on Parliament’s ultimate closure of all the playhouses in 1642. These petitions have been used to suggest that, beginning in the early seventeenth century, Blackfriars was a neighborhood in decline: wealthier residents moved out as the capital’s cultural center of gravity shifted westward to Westminster and the new west end. The chapter argues that despite undeniable changes in the residential makeup, economy, and physical fabric of Blackfriars, the area maintained its unique and vital identity, thanks in no small part to the presence of the playhouse.
