This weekend the Time Truck hosted a Christmas celebration of Shakespearean scale in Hackney with finds from the Curtain Theatre, where the bard himself was known to have performed, festive token making fun for children, and a time-lapse video of our detailed excavation. There was also a chance to see a raucous live theatrical rendition of Twelfth Night.
We took along some of the amazing artefacts discovered at the theatre by our archaeologists including a medieval merchant’s token from the late 16th to early 17th centuries which inspired our family activity of token making.
