The site of the Red Bull Playhouse – built c.1605 – finally has its plaque.
With circa 100 people in attendance, Haywards Place saw a plaque unveiled to this Jacobean theatre, one-time home of Webster’s The White Devil and Thomas Heywood’s A Woman Killed With Kindness to name but two performed contemporaneously to Shakespeare’s repertoire.
Entertainer and broadcaster, Alexander Armstrong, together with his sons, Patrick and Rex, were there to unveil the plaque, along with David Poyser, Mayor of Islington and Dr. Griffith as academic boffin.
