Superstitious Saturday Monday
It is said that on Monday nights theater
ghosts do their own performances. This is probably because there are seldom any
scheduled (human) performances on Mondays, since dancers and actors often have
that day off. Therefore, the ghosts are free to roam about the premises, doing
as they please.
There are many non-theatrical
superstitions involving Mondays. For instance, no grave digging on a Monday
(1891); or this saying: “work begun on Monday will never be a week old”; and if
a store owner extents credit to a customer on Monday, he will be unlucky all
week.
On the other hand, in Ireland it is believed
that “no great undertaking can be auspiciously commenced in Ireland on any
morning but Monday morning.”
From the Big
Blue Book of Ballet Secrets
Superstition #164:

nights.”
