À propos

To celebrate the opening of the new Courtyard Theatre, a permanent display has been
created about the history of the building and the surrounding area.
The new
theatre has been developed within a Grade II listed building, the former public library in
Pitfield Street, Hoxton. Interestingly, this is only a few hundred metres from the site of
the first purpose-built playhouses in England, the Theatre (1576) and the Curtain (1577),
the latter still commemorated in the name of Curtain Road. These, like the later
playhouses on the south bank of the Thames, were built just outside the City of London to
avoid coming under the jurisdiction of the city fathers
