Ep272 - The Haunting of the Theatre Royal: Part One

For more than 350 years, the Theatre Royal at London's Drury Lane has burned, risen from the ashes, and filled its stage with some of the greatest performers England ever produced. But when the curtain falls, some of them may have chosen to stay behind. In Part One, we descend into the strange and tragic history of Drury Lane, where an argument over a wig ends in murder, a legendary clown is haunted by a lifetime of misery, and actors still report unseen hands, spectral faces, and figures watching from the darkness. At this theatre, when applause eventually dies away, the audience goes home, and the lights go out... something may still be waiting for the next performance. Citizens of the Milky Way, prepare yourselves for Part One of The Haunting of the Theatre Royal!
