Shakespeare's Globe Theater has a fascinating history. The theater that stands in London today has replaced two previous versions but has maintained the original architectural features and construction techniques.
Actors who have performed at the Globe, as well as audiences who have seen shows there, describe it as electrifying, communal and deeply engaging.
Join me on a virtual tour of the Globe Theater and along the way, I will tell you about the history of the theater's origins and a little bit about London's theater history, including the great fire of London. Learn about how Shakespeare wrote some of his plays specifically poking fun of the royalty who came to see the shows.
Explore how this theater can bring the experience of Edwardian and Victorian times to modern audiences.

Me and my mom were at the grand opening of The Globe Theater in June 1997. In fact, our seats were only about 20 feet away from the Queen herself that night. My mom also bought 3 of those name stones that go along the outside of the theater. One with her name, my name, and my dad’s name who had passed away years before. My mom was very involved in Chicago with the fundraising for The Globe throughout the 90’s. It was such a huge passion for her. Unfortunately, my mom now is very sick and I think I’m going to lose her soon. I just wanted to pay tribute to her here and say that the Globe Theater has always been so special to her and one day I’ll come back here with my kids and show them those name stones and tell them how their Nannan helped build this place. I love you mom ♥️

[@AugmentedActor]

That's such a lovely story. I'm happy to hear you've left a mark on the Globe that will be there for years to come. I'm sorry about your mom's health. I hope she has much more time left in her, but I wish you the both the best of luck with the time you have left together.

[@GQguy24]

@@AugmentedActor I really appreciate your kind words. Thank you.

[@ninascott1506]

dang thats rough buddy

[@bryanmonaghan6841]

Was she an actor, teacher or just an interest in w.s.?

[@GQguy24]

@@bryanmonaghan6841 throughout the 1990s my mom was an integral part in the fundraising for rebuilding the Globe theater. We lived in Chicago and she organized many events there that generated thousands of dollars that went towards the reconstruction of the Globe. She even knew and worked with Sam Wanamaker before he passed away in the early 90s.

[@bryanmedrano2562]

is it a reference to better call saul? Mmmm?

[@AugmentedActor]

I love that show, but I’m not quite sure specifically which part you are asking about?

[@bryanmedrano2562]

@@AugmentedActor yeah, i knew it, the parts where you have the yellow background, it's identical to the style of Saul's commercials. excellent video by the way, I loved it :)

[@wingedobi8957]

Hi

[@AugmentedActor]

Hi back

[@naemijeng2157]

Thank you for that video! Do you know the amount of the reconstruction costs?

[@AugmentedActor]

You know I can’t seem to find any reconstruction costs in my research. But I do know that many people in the government and public opinion were against rebuilding it. It did gross $1.5 million in revenue in its first year after reopening. I imagine it cost a pretty penny to rebuild.

[@xxx-xxc]

Are the plays performed in old english or are they modernized?

[@AugmentedActor]

I can't speak for every play produced there, but the one I saw was mostly the original Shakespearean text with a few modernized words thrown in from time to time as short asides and a lot of modernish humor thrown in (like spit takes and other sight gags). I think in general the original text is used but the interpretations are geared toward being understood by a modern audience. And they also perform non shakespearean plays as well, some modern and some classical.

[@xxx-xxc]

@@AugmentedActor oh, ok. thank you for your detailed answer
