I assume for the very reason that illumination would have been nigh impossible, expensive and moreover dangerous. People would have had very different working days so afternoon performances or later in the summer period would to my mind have coincided with a type of siesta period. people may have returned to work afterwards or gone home. It would be curious to know what were the hours kept by public houses at this time
