Queen Henrietta's Men was an important playing company or troupe of actors in Caroline era in London. At their peak of popularity, Queen Henrietta's Men were the second leading troupe of the day, after only the King's Men.
Beginnings
The company was formed in 1625, at the start of the reign of King Charles I, by theatrical impresario Christopher Beeston under royal patronage of the new queen, Henrietta Maria of France. They were sometimes called the Queen's Majesty's Comedians or other variations on their name. The company was founded after an eight-month closure of the London theatres due to bubonic plague (March to October, 1625). The Lady Elizabeth's Men, then called the Queen of Bohemia's Men, had been resident at Beeston's Cockpit Theatre up to the plague closing, and provided the foundation of the new organization.
Success
Theatre manager Beeston had had several different companies acting in his Cockpit Theatre since he started it in 1617; it was with Queen Henrietta's Men that he achieved the level of success he desired. James Shirley became something like the house dramatist of the group; plays by Philip Massinger, John Ford, and Thomas Heywood were also important in their repertory. The company staged revivals along with new plays; their 1633 production of Marlowe'sThe Jew of Malta was a major success. They played The Witch of Edmonton early in 1636.
The Stuart Queens and consorts of England and later Great Britain indulged in art, theater and culture. One lost her crown when her husband lost his head. And most had to look the other way while their spouses carried on with their many lovers. The Stuart Queens consort and male consort were:
Anne of Denmark
Henrietta Maria of France
Catherine of Braganza
Mary of Modena
George of Denmark

Queen Henrietta Maria Part 1 - the poison queen?
So Queen Henrietta Maria, she has gone down in history as a lady Macbeth in King Charles I’s court. A catholic fanatic who drove and nagged her husband into foolish adventures, a French queen who conspired to bring foreign armies into the country to fight the king’s enemies. A catholic queen who did not understand Protestant Britain and did all in her power to convert the country to the old faith despite the dangers this would cause.
She has been painted as: the most reviled consort to have worn the crown of Britain’s three kingdoms. She has been condemned as that ‘Popish brat of France’, a notorious wh*re and traitor.'
Her role before, during and after the English Civil War has been argued for centuries. Let's see what you think!

Who was Henrietta Maria and what was her role in English history?
Henrietta Maria was the queen consort of King Charles I of England in the 17th century. She arrived in England as a 15-year-old French bride and became a powerful networker and peacemaker at the court. During the English Civil War, Henrietta Maria became a warrior queen, raising money, arms, and men in Holland to help her husband, who was managing things badly. She was directly involved in negotiations with parliamentary commanders, gained the Port of Scarborough, and was involved in the council of war. Henrietta Maria's skill and courage on the battlefield transformed her into a fierce warrior queen. However, history remembers her as an evil seductress who inspired Charles to go to war, despite being much more than just a queen consort.
