Queen Elizabeth never set foot in the Globe Theatre, that was for lower class citizens. She dud, however have private plays and performances in her private chambers. Shakespeare performed for her 14 times.
Rich people payed a penny to sit on a seat under the rim of the Globe and they payed another penny for a cushion.
poorer people would stand ont he ground around the stage and have to pay 1 penny. richer people could sit on the 2nd and 3rd floor for the areas in the back on both these floors it cost 2 pennys. for the ares clooser to the stage on these floors they had to pay 3 pennys.
If you were richer than the groundlings you would pay as much as half a crown to sit in the galleries. The reason why these are better are because they are covered so if it is wet or rains they wont get wet, where as if you were poorer you would stand in the pit which surrounded the stage so if it rains the pit is not covered. The poorer people were called the groudlings and paid one penny to get in and watch the performances.
Rich people sat at the top floors of the globe theatre, while the poor people sat in front of the stage of the globe theatre.
rich and poor peeps.
she sits on a throne
Queen Elizabeth I was succeeded by King James I of England.James was her first cousin twice-removed, and had been ruling as King James VI of Scotland since July 24, 1567.James was the only son of Mary Stuart, (Queen of Scots) and Henry Stuart (Lord Darnley). Mary was the daughter of James V of Scotland, son of Margaret Tudor, sister of Henry VIII.His English coronation took place on 25 July 1603.The crowns of England and Scotland were united under James, creating the union which became known as Great Britain.

No, because she was born in London. However, her direct line goes back through her father George VI to Victoria who was the last of the House of Hanover, a German principality, to sit on the throne.
it would cost 20 shillings Groundlings paid a penny to stand around the stage. Seats went for three pence in the galleries. Lords Rooms cost more.
Queen Elizabeth I first gave Sir Humphrey Gilbert (drowned in 1583) permission to establish an English settlement in Newfoundland. Since he died in the attempt, the queen then gave his half-brother, Sir Walter Raleigh, the charter. He established the settlement of Roanoke Colony in present day North Carolina which later became known as the "Lost Colony".
The famous Shakespearian 'Globe' theatre in London; attendees, rather than sitting, stood and enjoyed often interactive theatre with its performers. The Globe was first built in 1599 by Shakespeare's Playing Company.
they sat on the top w away from them balls
Be rich and important.
When people used to go and watch perfomances in the Globe, the wealthy, or as you would say "the posh people" would sit on the seats in the theatre.
The Globe Theatre had wooden benches to sit on. You could get a cushion if you were prepared to pay. In Shakespeare's day, the plays went on for two or three hours without intermission, so I imagine your bum might get sore by the end.
There were four different places to sit. The wealthy could sit right on stage.
the people sat on each otha's laps
Two pennys to watch from the pit, three pennys to sit, six pennys to sit, and a crown to sit. So about fifteen quid.
Anyone who could afford to pay the extra money to sit in the galleries could have a seat, and for an extra penny, they could sit on a cushion.
Lord's Rooms were rooms in the theatre where people could sit and watch the play with a proper roof over their heads:the Globe Theatre was an open-air theatre.:+)
the upper class sat in the theatre galleries who would often rent straw pillows to us on the wooden benches
It cost 16d, also known as 16pence to sit in the pit. But dont forget you had to stand up.
