克里斯托弗·马洛（英语：Christopher Marlowe，1564年－1593年5月30日），英国伊莉莎白年代的剧作家、诗人及翻译家，为莎士比亚的同代人物。马洛以写作无韵诗（blank verse）及悲剧闻名，亦有学者认为他在生时比莎士比亚更出名。

1593年5月18日，英国政府下令通缉马洛，但却并没有列出任何理由。同月20日，马洛于被带到英国枢密院前接受审讯，其后需要每天向他们报到。10天后，马洛与Ingram Frizer等人争执期间，被Ingram Frizer用匕首刺死。到了现在，仍没有人知道他的死与枢密院的审问有没有关连。

Christopher Marlowe, also known as Kit Marlowe (baptised 26 February 1564 –30 May 1593), was an English playwright, poet and translator of the Elizabethan era. Marlowe was the foremost Elizabethan tragedian of his day. He greatly influenced William Shakespeare, who was born in the same year as Marlowe and who rose to become the pre-eminent Elizabethan playwright after Marlowe's mysterious early death. Marlowe's plays are known for the use of blank verse and their overreaching protagonists.
