Back then there were no seat cushions (and if you bought the cheap ticket, no seats), but people could eat, drink and smoke in the theatre all they wanted. The play went continually, with no intermissions, and there were no bathrooms. Those who couldn't hold it added to the smell of thousands of people huddled together who had not had a bath for months.
