Return

Blind loges (boxes) were loges in which there was no direct line of sight between the loge and the stage. Blind loges were often used for musicians such as trumpeters and drum players. Loges other than blind loges were used for the crown (king, queen) and other important personages such as leading bourgeoise, and princes of the church. See Sauter and Wiles, p. 119.
