Shakespeare’s Globe Best Seats and Seating Plan
Shakespeare’s Globe is one of the most iconic theatres in the world, a stunning recreation of the original Elizabethan playhouse where William Shakespeare’s plays were first performed. The original Globe Theatre, built in 1599, was tragically destroyed by fire in 1613 when a theatrical cannon misfired during a performance of Henry VIII - talk about bringing the house down! The theatre was rebuilt in 1614 but later demolished in 1644 during the Puritan rule.
The modern Shakespeare’s Globe, which stands proudly on London’s Bankside today, was the dream of American actor and director Sam Wanamaker. His vision led to the theatre’s reconstruction, which was completed in 1997. Faithfully designed to reflect the original 16th-century playhouse, it features a circular, open-air structure, wooden benches, and the famous standing area known as the Yard. Today, Shakespeare’s Globe continues to bring the Bard’s works to life in an authentic, immersive setting that transports audiences back in time.
