It is of note that Gabriel Spenser one on the company's actors was killed in a duel with the dramatist Ben Jonson in 1698, who many years later would be closely associated with Publication of Shakespeare's First Folio. After the Admiral's men left the Rose it was used by Worcester's men who had broken their contact with the owner of the Boar's Head at Whitechapel and lacked a venue and faced legal action. They remained at the Rose until the end of 1605, when, after becoming Queen Anne's men they moved to the recently built and licensed Red bull at Clerkenwell. The Rose is believed to have been demolished the following year. Dimensions of the Rose Theatre |
