  Hall - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Where the hall inside the front door of a house is elongated, it may be called a passage, or hallway.
It may be privately or government-owned, such as a function hall owned by one company used for weddings and cotillions (organized and run by the same company on a contractual basis) or a community hall available for rent to anyone.
Hall is also a surname of people, one of whose ancestors lived in a hall as distinct from one such as David M. Cote, whose ancestor will have lived in a cote, a much humbler place shared with the livestock.

Canadian and American games often have multiple bingos — for example, the players may first play for a single line, then after that is called continue playing for a full card, then for a consolation full card.
Because of the large numbers of cards played by each player, most Canadian and American halls have the players sit at tables to which they often fasten their cards with adhesive tape.
At commercial halls, after calling the number the caller then displays the next number on a television monitor; bingo cannot be called until that number is called aloud, however.

 theater - Hutchinson encyclopedia article about theater   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
The religious plays continued to be staged regularly in England until the final quarter of the 16th century, and the professional itinerant actors performed their interludes on stages erected against the hall-screens of Tudor halls and on curtained booth stages wherever they could find an audience.
It must be remembered that the company with which Shakespeare was associated (the King's Men) regularly performed in places other than the Globe Theatre; in the indoor Blackfriars, from 1608; in the banqueting halls of the royal palaces; and in the provinces, when plague was rife in London.
The evidence to be gleaned from the surviving detailed sketches and notes (most of them by the designer Mahelot) for productions between 1633 and 1678 indicates that French staging continued to owe much to the simultaneous staging of the medieval period.
