John Rastell’s Stage | John Rastell’s stage

John Rastell built London’s first purpose-built stage on property fronting on Old Street in Finsbury (Giles-Watson 172). Although the name of the stage/playhouse, if it had one, is now lost, we find traces of its existence in the legal record.

For more information, see Giles-Watson (2013), Kathman (2009); Dillon (1996), and Dillon (1997).
