"The contrast between the vitality of the stage and the inert theatrical afterlife haunts the V&A's big scale galleries that cover live performance in Britain over the last 350 years. They replace the old Theatre Museum in London's West End, which controversially closed in 2007, and despite the obvious curatorial care, you wonder if this museum of live performance isn't an oxymoron."
