Restoration theater began in England in the late 17th century, specifically around 1660, following the Restoration of Charles II to the throne. This period marked the reopening of theaters that had been closed during the Puritan Commonwealth. The era is characterized by the emergence of professional acting companies and the introduction of new theatrical styles, including the use of elaborate stage designs and the exploration of themes related to love, social class, and morality. Notable playwrights from this time include Aphra Behn and William Congreve.
