Four ghosts who haunt the Theatre Royal Brighton This theater reportedly boasts not one but four ghosts, according to one newspaper account. There’s a Grey Lady, naturally, which seems to be a must-have apparition for old theaters in Britain. 🧵 #TheaterThursday

The ghostly body of clown Joseph Grimaldi also lurks around Theatre Royal Drury Lane. If theatregoers spot the ghost, he typically resembles a white, disembodied face floating around the theatre. Oddly, Grimaldi requested that his head should be severed #TheaterThursday 🧵

If you visit the Theatre Royal Haymarket, you may encounter the ghost of John Baldwin Buckstone. Buckstone was once actor-manager at Theatre Royal Haymarket, and staged 200 plays at the West End venue, before passing away at the age of 77. #TheaterThursday 🧵

The most crowded Broadway season would look sluggish to the playwrights of the Spanish Golden Age. Over 2 centuries, 10,000 to 30,000 plays were written–an average of 50 to 150 plays a year! They were played at theaters like the Corral de Comedias in Almagro. #TheaterThursday.
