Richard Robinson (died March 1648) was an actor in English Renaissance theatre and a member of Shakespeare's company the King's Men.
In the printed text of that play (1631), Jonson praises Robinson's acting of female roles and calls him an "ingenious youth."
Robinson played the role of Aesopus in the company's 1626 production of Massinger's The Roman Actor, and Count Orsinio in Lodowick Carlell's The Deserving Favourite (1629).
Robinson is included in the cast lists for the company's productions of Bonduca, The Double Marriage, A Wife for a Month, and The Wild Goose Chase, plays in the canon of John Fletcher and his collaborators.
Seventeenth-century sources, including James Wright's Historia Histrionica (1699), falsely report that Robinson was killed in the siege of Basing House in October 1645, during the English Civil War.
