Read the excerpt from the time traveler's guide to elizabethan england.

in 1574 the city authorities are given powers to restrict playhouses, forcing the actors to find new premises in the suburbs. this becomes a golden opportunity for john brayne and his brother-in-law, james burbage, who in 1576 build a new theater, simply called the theatre, at shoreditch, just half a mile north of bishopsgate. the following year a second theater, the curtain, is built just two hundred yards away. despite some heavy opposition from puritan preachers and moralists, both theaters are successful.

which sentence accurately describes the progression of events?

a. because successful theaters were built outside of the city, many theaters shut down in the suburbs.
b. because john brayne built a new theater, city authorities restricted playhouses.
c. because city authorities restricted playhouses, new theaters were built outside city limits and grew to be successful.
d. because the curtain was built in the suburbs, puritan preachers began to oppose theaters in the city.
