Description
ca. 1000-1500 AD--English--Reconstruction of the Great Hall at Penshurst, Kent (a medieval manor house). A Great Hall could be used for theatrical, as well as musical entertainment, and it could also accommodate different sets. Here we see an open platea before the scenes--the doors could serve as mansions, with additional mansions set in the space.
