I will prove that this play involves several genres from the field of literary form of Drama, for instance, Ritual drama, mystery plays, Interludes. From the world of comedies it combines the genres of Farce, Court Masque and Occassional drama.

I am going to use quotations to support my statements, and in the last chapter I will demonstrate the theatrical stage conditions in the Elizabethan Age and the theatrical peculiarities in the play in order to exhibit the presences of the genres on stage. |
