LINK Red Lion: Archaeologists 'find London's earliest theatre' - BBC News

They even found beer cellars... guess entertainment hasn't changed much in the last 500 years.

An article in the "National Geographic" mentioned, that because of the massive rebuilding of London and especially all the work being done on the underground tube a lot of discoveries are being made. Contractors must hat working in a place with a famous past.

Definitely a fun discovery

What fun that must have been. After ten weeks of lock down the idea of going to a pub outside town for a social drink and an outdoor stage performance, seems like a wonderful treat, and a distant memory in more ways than one.

And in those days all you could catch was the black death, fleas, lice, leprosy and the English sweating fever, well worth the risk. LOL

Indeed, it does seem like a distant memory in more ways than one. Who knows, maybe the whole pandemic thing will spur a resurgence of outdoor theatre with open air and distancing options. And, of course, a bar.

@Amzungu You don't live in the UK do you? Or does standing in the cold and the rain make for a good night out for you? 😛

@Magister Hey. WE have good weather here in the UK . Last year I counted at least two days.

@Fernapple I'm hoping for the wet weather down here to last. Being stuck indoors for the summer, due to illness, is torture.
