| - The building had two parts. One (the main wing) was an L-shaped wing which housed the main entrance, the library, offices, meeting rooms, the dining area, and a kitchen.It opened onto a dressing area and stage which faced the center of the structure.The rest of the Hall (the ring) adjoined this wing.Circular in design, it surrounded a central courtyard and had few outward-facing windows.Sections of seats occupied much of its second floor, while guest (or student) quarters composed the level below.Entry onto the lower level of the ring, or circular wing, was restricted to doors opening onto the main wing.This level was oriented toward the courtyard and stage.A pallisade ran around its inner side and served as an exterior walk-or hallway.Here students and honored guests slept, studied, and enjoyed the shows.The upper level of the ring was designed for visitors and was more accessible.Two stairways permitted persons outside the Hall to climb directly onto this level, without entering the main wing.Stands or banks of seats occupied most of this floor.They faced toward the courtyard and stage and permitted fine viewing, without disturbing the spectator with a sense of what was happening on the lower level. The Master Juggler's quarters occupied part of both levels of the ring wing, and opened onto the main wing at four points.A second-story walkway — a bridge of yew — provides him direct access to the library (as well as his office), while two secret doors gave him ways into the first floor meeting room and second floor drinking hall.His main entry fronted the pallisaded inner walk and afforded passage to the dressing room behind the stage.The
