Lit by candles in a wooden theatre. Don't think I will be going there.

Can't wait. Just as we've seen Shakespeare's plays in something close to the original way of staging them ( I know, loads of compromises ) and discovered all sorts of textual insights and performing stuff, we can see the Jacobean works as close as we can get too. And let us applaud a theatre that can support itself with good shows and a brilliant supporters' fund raising group.

Wonder what snacks they will sell in this venue? Just asking.
