Rich connections between gaming and theatre stretch back to the 16th and 17th centuries. In the first book-length exploration of gaming in the early modern period, Gina Bloom shows that theatres succeeded in London's new entertainment marketplace largely because watching a play and playing a game were similar experiences.
