If the Admiral's Men were having difficulties in the city in this period, they were still welcome at Court (28 December 1589; 30 March 1590), and still popular in the towns and shires, where they toured more in 1589–90. Indeed, this was perhaps the height of their achievement: in these years Alleyn was making a sensation acting the heroes of Christopher Marlowe. "Tamburlaine" was printed in 1590 with their name on its title page. Some of the plays of Robert Greene, and Thomas Lodge's "The Wounds of Civil War," were also in their repertory in the early 1590s.
