CADRE: Co-Authored Drama in Renaissance England is a wiki-style forum for researchers to share evidence and information about the coauthorship – a term that includes practices of collaboration, revision, and adaptation – of early modern plays and other entertainments.

Inspired by the Lost Plays Database, CADRE seeks to provide a reliable resource for all those interested in the history and creation of early modern English drama. When complete, the database will
include entries for all known co-authored plays and entertainments, professional and amateur, from the early sixteenth century to the closure of the theatres in 1642.

The project is also building a helpful introductory guide to attribution studies, a glossary of key terms, and a bibliography of relevant scholarship. In this beta phase of the database, the editors have
elected to focus on non-Shakespearean drama as they develop and road-test the platform.
