Why Visit Shakespeare's Globe Theatre?
If there is any playwright in history who shall always be in the argument for the greatest playwright of all time, it will always be William Shakespeare. His works have been translated into over a hundred languages and almost everyone in the modern world is familiar with at least one of his works. His works, however, were not as appreciated when he was alive and in order to generate the hype, he opened his own theatre called the Globe Theatre.
The Globe Theatre was built in 1599. Unfortunately it was razed to the ground by an accidental fire in 1613. In 1970, an American director Sam Wanamaker rebuilt the theatre to its original likeness. The theatre was constructed using the materials used during William Shakespeare’s time. The circular structure is made out of wooden bays, the walls are made out of lime plaster and the roof is thatched. Due to its historic link and its traditional construction, The Globe attracts thousands of visitors each year.
