Apparantly it's the remains of very early laws on what is or is not "proper" on this day. It seems that while the law has over time been amended liveshows are still outlawed. I am awaiting clarification from the Min of Fair Trading.
Presumably the matter has not been deemed of sufficient importance to bring up to date! My source of info is a senior politician.
As far as I can see the only way to get something done is for all theatre etc to lobby for a change, although I imagine it is not on the Government 's high priority list!
