The Mermaid Theatre was a theatre encompassing the site of Puddle Dock and Curriers’ Alley at Blackfriars in the City of London and the most recently built in the City since the time of Shakespeare. It was importantly also one of the first new theatres to abandon the traditional stage layout; instead a single tier of seats surrounded the stage on three sides.
