Waiting for "The Taming of the Shrew" to begin

I went this evening to the
 RCS ( Royal Conservatoire of Scotland) to see "The Taming of the Shrew" in the Chandler Theatre.

They did a modern take of the Play in terms of the Costumes and Set. 
The people in the photo are Audience. They placed the Audience seating different to the way it usually is.
