Actors and those connected with theatre of all kinds have, over the centuries, developed an eerie, haunting, wonderful history of superstition and fear. In fact, actors are some of the most superstitions people in the world.

Some of these superstitions seem almost incomprehensible. Others are rooted in very real dangers, while still others have been so confused that the original reasons for their creation have been totally forgotten.

This is just a small listing of those superstitions which are unique to the theatre. And, where possible, the real reasons for their creation have been included. I hope you enjoy them
. . . and heed their warnings!
