Credo ReferenceAugust 22, 2011Henry VIII, by William Shakespeare: OK, so the play wasn't set here...but the play was being performed when Shakespeare's famous stomping ground caught on fire.
Geoff WakelingApril 16, 2010Go & watch a play in the Globe. Awesome atmosphere, and remarkably cheap if standing in the yard Read more
Hostelling InternationalAugust 9, 2011Plays at the Globe Theatre are pretty good, and fun. - Naomi, (Canada)
Make sure you stand in the Yard for £5. Gallery seating is very fun, but terrible lack of legroom if you're over 6 feet tall. Macbeth is an awesome production.
Margaret PerkinsJuly 23, 2010I saw Othello, but did not stand where the groundlings did - had gallery seating.. fantastic performance
Margarida CostaJune 24, 2013Well, if it wasn't for the rehearsals happening at the time, it sure would not be worth the money for the tour! ;(
Carol ChanAugust 6, 2010Watch out, their staff can be very snobby! One commanded me to move away from the cushion table 'now!' in an awful and disgraceful way! Other than this, it was a fine experience.
