N2 - The number of studies related to Spanish Golden Age playhouses has increased significantly since the 1950s when John Varey and Norman D. Shergold began to conduct research in the archives of Madrid. Together with those in Madrid, documents from the archives of Tudela, Alcalá de Henares, and Córdoba have served as the foundation for groundbreaking studies of the playhouses in these cities. The research initiated by Varey and Shergold, and later continued by John J. Allen and María Teresa Pascual Bonis, among others, inspired me to search for information related to Segovia's Hospital de la Misericordia playhouse in this city's Archivo Municipal and Archivo Histórico Provincial. Although the performance contracts and repair contracts upon which my article is based are not as numerous as those found in other cities, they do provide ample information to produce the most complete recreation of the Hospital de la Misericordia playhouse to date.
