Summary:
Bas-relief sculpture on the north facade of a playhouse depicts three sets of theatrical figures. Each set is separated by a protruding portion of the building. The male figure on the right is engaged in a sword fight. The center panel features a male and female dancing. The left panel has a male figure in the "present" position, with his proper right arm extended to guide patrons to the entrance. The figures in the sculpture are in rehearsal, and in the process of defining their roles.
