There’s no denying that William Shakespeare had an incredible and long-lasting influence on the world of literature and drama. Today, you can experience a part of that influence in the world’s ONLY recreation of William Shakespeare’s original indoor theatre. This 300-seat theatre is located in the Staunton historic district. Visitors can choose between cushioned bench seating, lord’s chairs, or cushioned gallants’ stools right on the stage!
