After Shakespeare the drama in England suffered a decline during the reigns of James I and Charles I. The heights reached by Shakespeare could not be kept by later dramatists. The Jacobean and Caroline dramatists gave expression to passive suffering and lack of mental and physical vigor.
 Thus in the hands of these dramatists of the inferior type the romantic drama which had achieved great heights during the Elizabethan period, suffered a terrible decline, and when the Puritans closed the theatres in 1642, it died a natural death. The greatest dramatist of the Jacobean period was Ben Jonson

The Restoration Period Drama

In 1642 the theatres were closed by the authority of the Parliament which was dominated by Puritans and so no good plays were written from 1642 till the Restoration. During the Restoration Period the emphasis was on prose as the medium of expression.
 As the common people still under the influence of Puritanism had no love for the theatres, the dramatists had to cater to the taste of aristocratic class which was highly fashionable, frivolous, cynical and sophisticated. The Restoration Drama was confined to the upper strata of society whose taste was aristocratic.
