The galleries had seats and a roof A seat cost 2 pennies, if you wanted a straw cushion for the seat you paid 3 pennies The stage was a thrust stage All parts were played by men A woman acting in a play would have been shameless and a serious breach of social custom

Actors sometimes wore masks Theater burned down when a cannon was fired during a play and hit the roof
