Original: As such , '' Elizabethan theatre '' is distinguished from Jacobean theatre ( associated with the reign of King James I , 1603 1625 ) , and Caroline theatre ( associated with King Charles I , 1625 until the closure of the theatres in 1642 ) .
Simplified: But this name is not very accurate ; the drama continued after Elizabeth 's death , into the reigns of King James I ( 1603 1625 ) and his son King Charles I ( 1625 1649 ) .
