Thomas Middleton (Londres, 18 de abril de 1580 – Newington Butts, 4 de julho de 1627) foi um dramaturgo inglês do teatro isabelino.

Reputação

O trabalho de Middleton tem sido elogiado por críticos literários, entre eles Algernon Charles Swinburne e T. S. Eliot.. Este último achava que Middleton perdia apenas para Shakespeare.

As peças de Middleton foram encenadas ao longo do século XX e no século XXI, cada década oferecendo mais produções do que a anterior. Mesmo algumas obras menos familiares dele foram encenadas: A Fair Quarrel no National Theatre e The Old Law pela Royal Shakespeare Company. The Changeling foi adaptado para o cinema várias vezes. A tragédia Women Beware Women continua sendo uma das favoritas dos palcos. The Revenger's Tragedy foi adaptado para o filme de Alex Cox, Revengers Tragedy, cujos créditos iniciais atribuem a autoria da peça a Middleton.
