		At the west end of the theatre there is a semicircular saloon, 41 feet long, and containing a handsome statue of Garrick between the comic and tragic muses, opening by an arch to the corridors, and having bar-rooms, from which the company may be supplied with refreshments.
		The first regular erected Theatre in Bath was in the year 1730, and which,it appears, did not, when filled, hold more than £30; but it was a most miserable concern, and so badly attended, that many of the principal performers were compelled to retire to rest with appetites not of the most enviable description.
		The tout ensemble of the Theatre has a light, elegant, and classical appearance, in consequence of the pillars (which are of cast iron) being placed at the distance of two feet from the front, by which the first row of each circle of the boxes appear as a balcony, and not connected with the building.

		The show begins with Acorn Antiques, the soap, cancelled, and the cast under the odious direction of John, played by Neil Morrissey, a regional theatre director who thinks of himself as something of a modern, edgy auteur.
		His proposed production of Acorn Antiques is an anathema to Mrs Overall's alter ego Bo Beaumont, though her fellow actors are just happy to get the work.
