He was stabbed in a bar fight just above the eye. In Deptford South East London near to Greenwich. It is thought that the bar fight was a rouse and that the real intention was to assassinate Marlowe. Marlowe was well traveled (especially Italy), gay, and very accomplished. There was also the Lord Great Chamberlain who was supporting William Shakespeare's plays. Richard the Third and Romeo and Juliette are both suspect. Up to 1600 and after many playwrights used pseudonyms as they favored their head over their prose. To read further ion this subject read Professor Daniel Wright, Director, The Shakespeare Research Centre.
