As per usual, we will be posting our New Year Resolution on the 25th March.

🎭It's our end of year round up for 2025.🎉 Our various online haunts have hit 180,000 and we've covered over 65% of all of the plays from before the closing of the theatres in 1642 in initial First Looks, and an increasing number of return visits and productions. Here's to more adventures in 2026!

🎉It's our end of the year round up! Yes, quite of lot of pre-modern drama happened. Not in places you'd necessarily hope or expect it, but it was there. Some stats to follow... maybe. #drama #EarlyModern #Medieval #PreModern #Theatre audioboom.com/posts/882156...
