520    "A legal document dated 1600, for a Star Chamber case 
       titled Clifton vs. Robinson, details how boys were 
       abducted from London streets and forcibly held in order to
       train them as actors for the Blackfriars theatre. No 
       adults were seen on-stage in this theatre, which was 
       stocked solely by acting boys, resulting in a satirical 
       and scurrilous method of play presentation. Were the boys 
       specifically targeted for skills they may have possessed 
       which would have been applicable to this type of play 
       presentation? And, was this method of 'recruitment' 
       typical or atypical of Elizabethan theatre?"--|cProvided
