Part of me thinks “Surely this isn’t true” but another part of me is like “This is not the weirdest thing I’ve ever heard”
There’s part of me that can’t possibly believe this is real, bit I’ve read parts of the Old Bailey records, and this is … not exactly normal, but not that far from it. People stole lots of shit, and drunk theater people are a very odd lot.
“Let us steal… a theatre!” – W. Shakespeare, Leverage (1601)
LBR, this is 100% something Shakespeare would write about… So why wouldn’t he do it for real?
