It was destroyed twice, once in 1613 and again in 1642.

The actors and staging were fantastic: we loved the rhythm, the acting, the interaction with the audience! And seeing this play in this venue was magical! The only drawback was that the person at the entrance couldn't read the Headout ticket to seat us, and we almost missed the start of the play because of the time lost.
