    • Abstract:
      The article focuses on challenging the historical perception that British theatre experienced a decline between the end of the Restoration and late Victorian eras. Topics include the growth of theatrical activities in Georgian-era Arundel, the social and economic contexts in which these theatre enterprises operated, and the impact of changes in the law on the development of permanent theatres in various towns and villages during that period.
