Taken from the dress circle stage left looking across the auditorium, it shows six boxes below the upper circle slips; with the dress circle and upper circle to the left; the stage, proscenium, house tabs (drawn) and orchestra pit to the right; the raked stalls below and a Baroque style domed ceiling partly in shot above. There are three boxes on each level, divided by giant fluted Doric columns that carry the second balcony slips.
