Theatre gas lightingIn 1825, the first U.S. newspaper account was published of a theatre lighted by gas in New York City, the Chatham Garden and Theatre situated at what is now 80-90 Chatham Street. Previously gas lighting had been seen in theatres, it was only as a novelty, but not illumination. The New York Post and Mirror reported that the whole theatre was lighted by gas "which sheds a clear soft light over the audience and stage." The illumination "elicited the loudest plaudits from those present." |
