The Globe Theatre
• https://www.futurelearn.com/courses/explor
e-english-shakespeare/1/steps/66640
Shakespeare with his actors had a disagreement
with the landowner of his theatre in the
North of London. So they took every part of
the Theatre to bring them through the river
and settle a new theatre in the South of
London which was cheaper. They called it the
Globe. But today we cannot see the whole
Theatre in London only the foundations
remain. The Globe opened in 1599.
Shakespeare was in a financial stability. So his
creativity flourished. He was working very
hard indeed ( en effet ). He wrote the plays
very quickly. He died in 1616. In the 1990’s
they recreated the Globe in London. In terms
of architecture they are really similar. There
are still a stage, a stage balcony, musicians’
gallery and three doors for the actors.
