    Fantastic venue, brilliant acting and terrivle, terrible audience. Ignorants, uncivilized and with no culture at all. The morons laugh all the time, even in the most dramatic scenes.

    A recreation of the original Shakespeare theatre that burnt down. Looks rather modern and fake in some ways.
