Did he mean French theater? Since he's quoting, I should ask, do
you think he meant to imply that this is also French theater? Or
the taratrios and itztdios of the Rome of chazal's day, which had AZ
overtones with dedications to various gods? Shabbos 150a and AZ 18b
associate the two. (As -- lehavdil elef alfei havdalos -- did Terullian
in De Spectaculis.)
