Chit chat - Cold feet
Meanwhile, Tabard was amused to read of similarly mysterious goings on at another playhouse.
Staff at the Cheltenham Playhouse report on their online blog of a rather odd discovery in the auditorium the other day.
One of them explains: “We don’t get a lot of lost property at the Playhouse - occasionally a coat, but more usually an umbrella or pair of spectacles, the sorts of things that are small enough to be easily forgotten [and while the item is discovered missing the next day, it generally takes the best part of a week before people realise where they left it].
“This morning we found something we’ve never had left behind before. There, in the front of house bar, a pair of men’s black shoes, neatly placed under a chair. We have to assume someone merely changed their footwear, as I can’t believe someone would have walked home barefoot and not realised.”
