The Globe Theatre adopted the motto "Totus mundus agit histrionem" ( the whole world is a playhouse ). This phrase was slightly re-worded in the William Shakespeare play As You Like It - "All the world's a stage" which was performed at the Globe Theatre.
"Totus mundus agit histrionem" meaning the whole world is a playhouse.

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.


How are the newly reconstructed Globe performances different from modern stage productions?

The more theatres you see, the more you realize that there is no such thing as a "normal theatre". Your idea of what a "normal theatre" is comes only from your limited experience. There are some features of the Globe Theatre in London (more properly called Shakespeare's Globe Theatre, opened in 1997). It is a replica of a sixteenth-century theatre, which makes it unusual but not unique. There are a number of others. It is an open-air theatre, which is also unusual, but such theatres also exist in, for example, Central Park in New York City. It is certainly a theatre visited by many tourists but the same can be said for any well-known theatre in the world.

What was the supporting wall of shakespeares globe?

The structure featured a circular or polygonal shape, with walls made from wood, wattle and daub, and thatched roofs. This design not only provided support but also contributed to the acoustics and atmosphere of the theater, allowing for a vibrant performance space. The Globe’s architecture reflected the style of contemporary playhouses, emphasizing an open-air experience for the audience.

What kind of theatre was the globe?

The Globe Theatre constructed in London in 1599, rebuilt in 1613, closed in 1642 and subsequently torn down, was an Elizabethan outdoor playhouse, all of which were built to the same basic groundplan. The Theatre, The Curtain, the Rose, The Hope, and The Swan were all built to this plan: the stage is thrust into a central courtyard surrounded by a polygonal roofed set of galleries. Behind the stage was a multi-story tiring house, the stage-side wall of which contained one or more balconies or curtained recesses. The lighting for the stage was natural sunlight entering the unroofed courtyard.
