You do need more, though, and you need more that are not 5 star. That's what helps know they're real, when that 1 guy always wants to give 1 star because he couldn't make the app work on his device. ;)<br /><br />I do like the app, and I Duane Morinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16569611828708601563noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13529575.post-32517018980860987972012-02-18T17:30:06.542-05:002012-02-18T17:30:06.542-05:00From the developer!

The answer is correct. There are no known existing copies of any of Shakespeare's works in his handwriting. The portion of "Sir Thomas Moore" is not definitively known to have been written by Shakesepeare, and one could certainly argue that even if it were, it the entire play could not be called one of his catkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08829033804624219274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13529575.post-84136970857305479892012-02-17T12:15:18.931-05:002012-02-17T12:15:18.931-05:00I'm pretty sure afternoon performances were th...I'm pretty sure afternoon performances were the standard at the Blackfriars, too, even though evening ones were technically possible. There was a curfew in early modern London, after all, and a high enough crime rate that people probably didn't want to be wandering around at night anyway.Fretful Porpentinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11165078003123517013noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13529575.post-24225308503607630562012-02-17T11:34:03.667-05:002012-02-17T11:34:03.667-05:00Maybe they're thinking of the Sir Thomas More ...Maybe they're thinking of the <i>Sir Thomas More</i> manuscript?

Or more if you count the poems? Bad phrasing, in any case.<br /><br />Depending on the exact phrasing of the question, "daytime" might be the only right answer because, e.g., not all plays had a nighttime performance but all plays had a daytime performance.
