- Comments:
- ODNB entry: '[T]here is no surviving evidence of Webster's dramatic activity until 1604, when his name is linked with that of Marston on the title-page of the third edition of the latter's The Malcontent. What is meant by the words ‘Augmented by Marston. With the additions played by the Kings Maiesties servants. Written by Ihon Webster’ has long been debated, but it is now generally agreed, as by Hunter and by Lake (1981), that Webster wrote not only the induction but also additional material involving the clown, Passarello.'
