I agree with newsclippings, feels old fashioned, which is nice. but if you're going for that, might want to change the last stanza a bit with makeup etc.

also in the first stanza, planks and lamps seems to be a pretty weak rhyme, especially in relation to the other rhymes in the poem.

I really love the third stanza though. great imagery and lovely description of a difficult time for the poem's actors.
