The Globe Theatre What a place!
Structure • Fitted up to 3000 people. • Three stories • Stage in the middle of the space • Performances during the day. • No luxuries of today’s Theatres or T.V shows
Location • South of the Thames • Wrong side of the tracks • Above the law?
The Actors and Audience • The actors were all men – no girls! • The actors had to accommodate for the lack of luxuries that we see in today’s theatres. • The Audience - - scum - low-life - groundlings • On the other hand...- the elite - Royalty - The Rich What a mix match of peeps!!!
The Globe • Burnt down during a performance of Shakespeare’s, ‘Henry VIII’ in 1613
