Note 9 — II. THE FORTUNE THEATRE, LONDON.

Reading edition

The “Hope” contract referred to above is a document second only in interest to the one under consideration. Its deficiency, however, in omitting all dimensions, prevents any satisfactory attempt at reconstruction. The theatre was to be built on the model of the Swan, and to be of similar “large compasse, forme, wideness and height.”

Explore with AITake your curiosity a little further.
