Well, honey, the Globe Theatre was built in the round because they didn't have fancy things like microphones back then, and they needed the audience to hear the actors. Plus, having an open-air design meant they didn't have to worry about pesky things like ventilation. So, basically, they built it that way because they had to, not because they wanted to impress anyone.

What did Shakespeare steal to build The Globe?

1. Shakespeare did not built the Globe Theatre. A man called Peter Street built it. Shakespeare was not a carpenter. 2. Shakespeare did not put up all of the money to build the Globe. He did not even put up most of the money to build it. He put up a lot less than other people, about one-eighth all told. 3. Shakespeare stole nothing in connection with the building of the Globe. 4. Neither did Richard and Cuthbert Burbage (the guys who actually paid for the theatre to be built). They took the timbers from their old theatre, The Theatre, and moved them to a new site. Their landlord sued them but he lost: the court held that The Theatre belonged to the Burbages and it wasn't stealing to take it off of the landlord's land.

Did the globe theatre have a trap door?

Shakespeare's Globe, a modern theatre built in 1997, is a replica of the Globe Playhouse, an Elizabethan theatre built by Richard and Cuthbert Burbage and the carpenter Peter Street in 1599. Like it, and like all theatres of that time and most nowadays, there is a trapdoor in the stage. This enables actors to suddenly appear or disappear from below (as the witches do in Macbeth) in a puff of smoke. It also could be used to represent a hole in the ground, like Ophelia's grave in Hamlet, or the mine being dug under the walls of Harfleur in Henry V.
