House of Revels - Theatre Through the Ages is a podcast all about the history of British theatre from year nought to year now. Each episode we explore a different theatre style, how it originated, its defining features and legacy. We score the theatre style in four categories, before deciding whether it belongs in the House of Revels, the great and noble hall where only the best of British theatre lives.
