Deep Play

On two different occasions, Dorimant refers to "deep play." He says that "deep play is now in private houses." By counterbalancing this "deep play" with "play in public spaces," is Etherege creating a metaphor for public and private theaters? What is the importance of the distinction between private and public "play" in this work?
