Shadowplay by Clare Asquith was published last year. It covers the same issues with a political overview. It's all there in code.

Just for the record, I think many writers accept that S. was indeed a Catholic but rather a cryptic or hidden one. The theory was first put forward in the 19th century by Richard Simpson who was a friend of Cardinal Newman and edited the famous RAMBLER MAGAZINE
A Jesuit did some work on this about 20 years ago and concluded from the texts of his plays that he could not have written as he did unless he had done the Ignatian exercises.
There is also evidence that he was resident in a Catholic recusant house in Lancashire when a very young man.

It has also been claimed that he was a Neoplatonist. He could have started off as a Catholic and become a Neoplatonist, which would explain both the speculation that he had undertaken the Spiritual Exercises and other material which has been suggested as evidence for Neoplatonism. There was a lot of it around at the time.
