Step Back in Time is a short series of lectures by Dr Pat Murrell in aid of St Nicholas Hospice Care. 'Players, playhouses and audiences in late Stuart and Georgian Bury St Edmunds' is the fourth in the series.

This talk explores the ad-hoc venues, Bury’s first permanent playhouse in the Market Cross, public amateur dramatic productions, professional performances and the opening years of William Wilkins’ Westgate Street venture.
