The Globe Theatre, unlike some of the other theatres, was used exclusively to put on plays. Other theatres, like the Hope and the Swan, sometimes had bearbaiting and other types of entertainment. However, contrary to popular supposition, they put on a broad variety of plays, and not just plays by Shakespeare. Shakespeare wrote no more than two or three new plays a year (after all, his total output was 38 plays in a 23-year career), yet the theatre companies had to premiere a new play every week or so. That means that most of the plays they put on were not by Shakespeare.
Nothing. The Globe theatre was one of the Elizabethan theatres. Think of "Elizabethan" as a time or type, not an actual theatre with that name.

All timbers used in the reconstructed Globe are oak.

The Globe Theatre was a wooden frame-structure building - this being a type of theatre design which had been pioneered by James Burbage (the father of Richard Burbage, whom Shakespeare worked for).
The word "theatre" includes cinemas where you see images projected onto a screen and also places where you see real live actors perform on stage. There might be a theatre called the Globe Theatre which is a cinema because it's a common name for theatres. But the most famous Globe Theatre (1599-1613) was destroyed many centuries before the invention of cinemas, and was exclusively built for stage plays.

No scenery was used at the globe because it was so disruptive. They used an occasional prop
At the globe theatre they hung flags to represent what type of play it was. Black represented Tragedy. White was hung for a humorous play.
