SHAKESPEARE GLOBE THEATRE
The Globe Theatre is a faithful reconstruction of the open-air playhouse, first built in 1599, where Shakespeare worked and for which he wrote many of his greatest plays.
Each year the theatre season runs from April to October with productions of work by Shakespeare and his contemporaries, as well as modern writers. Each year over 350,000 members of the audience experience the 'wooden O' sitting in a gallery or standing as a groundling in the yard, just as they would have done 400 years ago.
Current show is 'All's Well That Ends Well' a story of love and magic, where Shakespeare defies all expectations in this comedy. Students with valid ID get in to the show for £10!!!!
Also housed beneath the Globe is an exhibition bringing to life Shakespeare's Globe and world as it would have been in 1599. Surrounded by raucous taverns and bawdy-houses the Globe was the centre of London's most notorious entertainment district.
