SOME OLD LONDON THEATERS
District Of Shorediteh Had the First
Building Erected for Purely
Dramatic Purposes.

There was time, shortly after the
first theater was opened in London,
when the opposition to the new form
of entertainment was SO great that
an ordinance was passed by parlia-
ment for the compulsory closing OF
these palaces of amusement" and
making it a crime to be present as
spectator at play.
This was in 1912, when only two
theaters existed in London. The first
building specially erected for dramat-
ic purposes was built by an actor,
James Burbage, at Shoreditch, in 1876,
and called the Theater. A year or so
later a second theater known as the
Curten was opened, also at Shore
ditch, and these two playhouses ca
tered to London audiences until the
suppression of the theaterS
When plays were once more per-
mitted several new theaters opened,
including the Globe, at Southwark,
which was built by James Burbage.
the Rose and the Blackfriars and
Whitcfriars theaters.
Probably the most luxurious Of these
early theaters was the Fortune, built
by Edward Alleyn. an actor, in 1899,
and so christcned because it cost it's
owner the then fabulous sum, includ'
ing the ground 1t stood on, of f1,32O.
The only illumination during the per
Torrance was that afforded by candle
light gas being unknown until 1877,
when the first performance by gas
light was given ut Drury Lane.
