The first Globe Theatre, the one built in 1599, and the other outdoor theatres of its time such as the Rose, Swan, Curtain and Fortune, was built of wood timbering with whitewashed plastering. The stage was wooden, under a large wooden canopy held up by two mighty pillars, each made of a single tree trunk. Some of these materials might be hard to find, if it were not for the fact that the Burbages, who were the main financiers behind the Globe, owned a theatre (called The Theatre) which they could not use because it was on rented land and the landlord refused to allow any theatre patrons onto the premises. The Burbages, or rather their contractor Peter Street, dismantled The Theatre when the Landlords were out of town and saved the larger beams (like the two pillars which held up the stage) so they could be reused when Street built the Globe.
