<p>Since the rediscovery of Elizabeth Cary’s drama, <em>The Tragedy of Mariam</em>, the play and its author have generated a veritable critical industry. Yet little has been written about performance, a lacuna explained by a reluctance to think about <em>Mariam</em> as a theatrical creation. This article challenges the current consensus by arguing for the play’s theatrical imprint and by analysing two 2013 performances – a site-specific production at Cary’s birthplace, and a production by the Lazarus Theatre Company. Throughout, <em>Mariam</em> is engaged with in terms of casting, costume, lighting, set and movement, issues that have mostly been bypassed in Cary studies.</p>
