Museum of Shakespeare protects archaeological remains of Curtain Playhouse

Archaeological remains of Shakespeare's 16th-century Curtain Playhouse have been uncovered and integrated into the Museum of Shakespeare in Shoreditch, east London, by Perkins&Will.

Designed to "reveal and celebrate the historically significant remains" of the theatre, which were uncovered during the early stages of construction on the site, the museum was designed by architecture studio Perkins&Will for developer Cain International.
