Withdrawn by nominator; not eligible (nominated a month too late). Should this ever become a GA, it would be eligible then.

Created by Voceditenore (talk). Nominated by Gerda Arendt (talk) at 19:20, 18 July 2017 (UTC).

  • Gerda,how can this be eligible for DYK?? It was created on 11 June 2017 and was pretty much in in its present form on 14 June 2017 [1]. Surely, this is well past the "created or expanded 5x" in the last 7 days requirement. Voceditenore (talk) 19:27, 18 July 2017 (UTC)
Not my day, apparently (trying to do too many different things): I looked only at the first page of article history, sorry. Close, please, but not too fast, because I think it's good to know ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 19:32, 18 July 2017 (UTC)
Nevermind :). The theatre has indeed had a colourful history. I would have nominated it myself when I wrote it, but I just can't face the hassle of quid pro quo reviewing. Best, Voceditenore (talk) 19:52, 18 July 2017 (UTC)
