Why were women not allowed to perform at the globe?

Women were not allowed to preform at any theatre in Shakespeare's time. Women first appeared on stage in England after 1660.


What were the Uses for stage in globe theatre?

The stage is used for the actors to walk on while they are acting, in the Globe and any other theatre that ever existed.


Why were there only male actors in the globe theatre?

Not just the Globe Theatre but any theatre. I think its to do with acting being thought as a disreputable enterprise and not the kind of thing women should get involved in.


Why is Shakespeare's theater called the Globe theater?

The Globe Theatre, where many of his plays were performed, is not so named for its circular seating around the stage, since all the previous oudooor theatres (the Theatre, the Curtain, the Rose and the Swan) were the same design, which was not in any event globe-shaped. The name is more symbolic. If "all the world's a stage", then this stage was all the world, the globe being another name for the world.


Did the Globe Theater have red curtains?

It depends on which Globe Theatre you are talking about. If you are talking about the one Shakespeare worked in, it had a thrust stage, and so had no curtains between the stage and the audience as a proscenium stage would have. There was probably a curtain over the "concealment space", a recess in the back wall behind the stage, but we have no information about what colour it was. It might have been red. Or black. Or puce. Or just about any colour. If you are talking about some other Globe Theatre you will have to be more specific.
