query: What is the historical significance of Wilton House during the Jacobean era?
answer: During the Jacobean era (the reign of James I), Wilton House hosted James I and his court from October to December 1603, while the bubonic plague affected London.  The King's Men performed a play there for the King and Court on December 2, 1603; tradition suggests this play was *As You Like It*.
