Her name is Mary
She is 20 years old.
She works as a cleaner at Nobility Elizabeth Rose' house. An average worker was expected to work around 80 hours per week. She would be expected to clean around the whole house.
She does not have enough money to pay for transport so walks everywhere.
Her home was made from wood but recently was rebuilt with bricks. There were no updates in the furniture since 16th century. Chimneys were more of a luxury in the 16th century but coming into the 17th century they were becoming more popular and Mary was lucky enough to have one. Mary was extremely happy by this as it made it much warmer. She wasn't yet lucky enough to have glass windows but they were slowly becoming cheaper. It was a very small hut that was crowded but she made deal with it.
The props she most commonly saw in the
What she most enjoyed about the theatre was the escapism. By going to the theatre she got to get away from home and go out and be somewhere that wasn't small and cramped. What she also liked about the theatre was that by watching a play her mind was taken away into the story, it meant she wasn't worrying about her life and all her problems.
What she disliked about the theatre was how different the classes were treated. The seating arrangements made the rich and the poor very obvious who was who. She would have to stand to watch the play whereas the rich would be able to sit in a seat higher up.
