Massinger 1583-1640 was the son of an Elizabethan "new man," someone who became a provincial gentleman by his talents, not by birth.

At the center is the younger brother, Luke (an appropriately mercurial performance by Jo Stone-Fewings), whom Sir John (a credibly scary Christopher Godwin) has just bought out from debtors' prison, and who is treated as a servant by the "ladified" (Massinger's scathing neologism) mother and her ghastly girls (Lucy Briggs-Owen and Matti Houghton, who can mimic mama's moues with ease.)
